Public participation systems for anti-corruption policies and education programs of the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission (Chairperson Jeon Hyun-Heui, ACRC) were introduced as good practices in the Annex to the G20 Bali Leader’s Declaration on November 16.

“Compendium of Good Practices on Public Participation and Anti-Corruption Education” was adopted as one of the Annexes to the G20 Leaders’ Declaration 2022 on the 16th.

The compendium is based on practices of anti-corruption public participation and education programs in G20 countries at the G20 Anti-Corruption Working Group meeting to raise people’s awareness of anti-corruption and spread a culture of integrity.

The compendium provides various practices that the ACRC carried out in order to raise people’s awareness of corruption and establish a culture of integrity.

Good practices of public participation included ▴the People's Integrity Policy Monitoring Group, ▴public surveys reflected in the Integrity Assessment of public institutions, and ▴corruption and public interest violation reporting system through an online platform.

Good practices of education programs on anti-corruption included mandatory training for public officials about the prevention of corruption and programs for future generations, such as ▴children’s puppet shows on integrity, ▴education for elementary and middle school students about ethics and morals, and ▴web dramas including the value of integrity.

ACRC Assistant Chairperson of Planning and Coordination Office Lim Yoon-Ju said, “The compendium provided an opportunity for Korea’s public participation in anti-corruption and good education programs to be shared with the international community. The ACRC will make efforts to ensure the value and culture of integrity are further spread in society.”
