The Global Integrity Dialogues are in-country stakeholder discussions and workshops designed to plot a course for the future of local anti-corruption efforts.

Starting with evidence.
Dialogue discussions start with an analysis of the latest Global Integrity assessment for the country, which provides a dense, unpackable snapshot of the current state of anti-corruption efforts and allows for context-building regional & international comparisons. This reporting, locally researched and transparently peer-reviewed, provides a common starting point for our discussion of next steps. Whenever possible, Global Integrity’s local research team is present to deepen the understanding of the assessment results.

Discussion, not advocacy.
Global Integrity’s role in this discussion is not to provide answers or recommendations. Instead, we bring a process of structured reflection and an evidence-based dialogue that enables local stakeholders to identify areas for improvement and establish their own priorities for reform. Participants of previous Dialogue events have included key members of parliament, ministerial-level officials from government, civil society advocates, journalists, local religious leaders, researchers, and foreign donors.

Follow-up and next steps.
Through breakout groups and a structured agenda, participants in the workshops work together to identify realistic next steps for implementing governance reforms. The results of those conversations and debates are collected into a consensus Conclusions and Recommendations document which is published following the end of the Dialogue. This document is grounded in the diverse experiences of the workshop participants and can be a powerful validator for change-agents pushing forward anti-corruption reforms.
