Lebanon's anti-corruption strategy: the youth perspective

Organized by: UNDP Lebanon, UNDP-ACIAC with the support of KOICA

On the occasion of the International Anti-Corruption Day (IACD) 2020, youth groups representing higher education institutions in Lebanon, as well as leading civil society organisations, came together to discuss with OMSAR’s Minister Mr. Dimyanos Kattar, UNDP’s Resident Coordinator Ms. Celine Moyroud, and the Chairperson of the Lebanese Transparency Association (LTA), Dr. Mosbah Majzoub, the progress in the implementation of the National AntiCorruption Strategy 2020-2025 (NACS). The event was organised by UNDP as part of its campaign this year, striving at engaging youth in the anti-corruption efforts, by instigating a nation-wide discussion on the role of youth as change agents in advancing Lebanon’s anti-corruption agenda. Youth were provided by the opportunity to express their stance through direct dialogue with decision makers, and through illustrating their perceptions of corruption and the fight against it as part of a postage stamp design competition in which UNDP partnered with LibanPost.
