At the National Coordination Committee for Anti-Corruption (ACNCC), we are committed to providing comprehensive services that empower citizens and institutions in the fight against corruption. Through a range of strategic initiatives, we aim to promote transparency, strengthen accountability, and safeguard public interests. Below are the key services we offer:
1. Public Awareness Campaigns
We organize nationwide campaigns to educate the public on the dangers of corruption and its negative impact on society. Through workshops, seminars, social media outreach, and public forums, we engage communities in meaningful discussions about ethical practices, transparency, and accountability. Our campaigns aim to equip citizens with the knowledge and tools to recognize, resist, and report corruption in their daily lives.
2. Whistleblower Protection and Support
ACNCC provides a safe platform for individuals who wish to expose corrupt practices. We ensure the confidentiality of whistleblowers and offer legal and moral support to protect their rights. Our team works closely with legal professionals to guide whistleblowers through the process, ensuring their voices are heard while safeguarding them from retaliation.
3. Corruption Investigation and Reporting
We conduct independent investigations into allegations of corruption in both public and private sectors. Our investigative team collects evidence, verifies facts, and reports findings to relevant authorities, media, and the public. Through these investigations, we aim to uncover corrupt activities and ensure appropriate action is taken against those involved.
4. Policy Advocacy for Anti-Corruption Laws
ACNCC advocates for stronger anti-corruption laws and effective enforcement. We collaborate with policymakers, legal experts, and civil society organizations to push for reforms in the legal framework that address gaps in current legislation. Our advocacy efforts also include proposing policy changes that promote transparency and accountability in government and corporate practices.
5. Transparency and Accountability Monitoring
Our organization monitors the spending of public funds, ensuring that budgets and expenditures are managed responsibly and transparently. We regularly review government projects, public procurement processes, and other financial dealings to identify instances of corruption or misuse of resources. Our reports are made available to the public, holding institutions accountable for their actions.
6. Corruption Impact Assessment
ACNCC conducts corruption impact assessments to measure how corrupt practices affect communities, businesses, and governance. These assessments help identify sectors most vulnerable to corruption and provide data-driven recommendations for mitigating risks. By understanding the broader impact, we can prioritize areas that require urgent intervention.
7. Legal Assistance and Anti-Corruption Litigation
We offer legal assistance to victims of corruption and those affected by unethical practices. Our legal team provides counsel, representation, and support in pursuing legal action against corrupt individuals or institutions. ACNCC also initiates public interest litigation cases aimed at exposing systemic corruption and holding perpetrators accountable.
8. Training and Capacity Building
ACNCC provides training programs and workshops designed to build capacity among government officials, businesses, civil society organizations, and the general public. These training sessions focus on ethical leadership, good governance, and anti-corruption best practices. By strengthening the skills and knowledge of individuals and institutions, we aim to create a more resilient system that can withstand corruption.
9. Partnership and Collaboration Building
We actively seek partnerships with national and international organizations to strengthen the anti-corruption movement. By working with civil society groups, NGOs, academic institutions, and international anti-corruption bodies, we build a collaborative network to share knowledge, resources, and strategies. These partnerships enhance the effectiveness of our efforts and foster a global approach to fighting corruption.
10. Research and Publications
ACNCC conducts in-depth research on corruption trends, governance issues, and the effectiveness of anti-corruption policies. Our findings are published in reports, articles, and policy briefs, which are made available to the public, media, and policymakers. Through our research, we aim to contribute to the national and global dialogue on combating corruption and offer practical solutions for change.
Each of these services reflects our commitment to a corruption-free Bangladesh. We encourage citizens, institutions, and organizations to collaborate with us in these efforts, as together, we can build a society based on integrity, transparency, and justice.
