The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) e-learning entitled Introduction to Anti-Corruption. UNODC is a global leader in the fight against illicit drugs, crime in all its forms, and terrorism. UNODC eLearning courses deliver online training on international security threats such as organized crime, terrorism, illicit drugs, trafficking in persons and smuggling of migrants, wildlife & forest crime and cybercrime.
This self-paced trainning provides an introduction to the United Nations Convention Against Corruption, what corruption is, the consequences it can have as well as the requirements for how corruption should be addressed.
The UN Convention against Corruption is the only legally binding universal anti-corruption instrument. The Convention’s far-reaching approach and the mandatory character of many of its provisions make it a unique tool for developing a comprehensive response to a global problem. United Nations Convention covers five main areas: preventive measures, criminalization and law enforcement, international cooperation, asset recovery, and technical assistance and information exchange. Additionally, the convention covers many different forms of corruption, such as bribery, trading in influence, abuse of functions, and various acts of corruption in the private sector. A highlight of the Convention is the inclusion of a specific chapter on asset recovery, aimed at returning assets to their rightful owners, including countries from which they had been taken illicitly. The vast majority of United Nations Member States are parties to the Convention.
The training covers:
1) Introduction to Curruption and The United Nations Convention against Corruption,
2) Preventive measures,
3) Criminalization and Law Enforcement,
