It destroys the basic rights of hundreds of millions of people across the world, it has devastating consequences on the services provided by public institutions and it undermines the prospect for a better life for future generations. I believe together we can work towards ending corruption, overcoming widespread injustice and impunity. All forms of corruption must be ended to secure the basic rights of all people and ensure a world where everyone can live in dignity. This Declaration Against Corruption is consistent with and supportive of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the United Nations Convention against Corruption. It is also consistent with Transparency International’s core values: Transparency, Accountability, Integrity, Solidarity, Courage, Justice, Democracy." ​====== "I will not pay bribes. I will not seek bribes. I will work with others to campaign against corruption. I will speak out against corruption and report on abuse. I will only support candidates for public office​ who say no to corruption and demonstrate transparency, integrity and accountability." ------- "Don't let anyone rob you of your imagination, your creativity, or your curiosity.
