Resources

This database contains resources that CIPE and partners the International Republican Institute (IRI) and the National Democratic Institute (NDI) believe could be useful for organizations seeking to pivot and capitalize on anti-corruption windows of opportunity, and for organizations seeking to prepare to tackle a window of opportunity before it appears. The types of resources in this database have been informed by CIPE and Global Integrity’s research into Anti-Corruption Windows of Opportunity during the COVID-19 Pandemic and Open Society Foundation’s report “Seeing New Opportunities: How Global Actors Can Better Support Anti-Corruption Reformers.”

This report presents the impact evaluation of the Rapid Response Opportunities for Anti-Corruption in Ecuador (RRAP) developed between May and September 2023. It implemented a qualitative assessment of three significant outcomes: mobilization of civil society and the private sector, adoption of reforms, and reduction in incentives to corruption. This evaluation aims to provide CIPE with insights for future RRAP implementations.

The Corruption Institutional Analysis Diagnosis (CIAD) methodology was developed to understand if there is a viable window of opportunity to conduct rapid response anti-corruption interventions in a chosen country.

What anti-corruption lessons can we learn from COVID-19? The Anti-Corruption Governance Center (ACGC) at the Center for International Private Enterprise (CIPE) and Global Integrity partnered on this joint report to explore the extent to which anti-corruption reformers identified windows of opportunity during the COVID-19 pandemic to advance reforms, acted on these opportunities, and have confidence in the results they achieved.

This guidance is a resource for USAID staff working in countries trapped in severe corruption, particularly those whose courageous citizens open windows of opportunity for reform.

This is one component of a suite of policy and programmatic products that the Anti-Corruption Task Force is developing to durably elevate anti-corruption at USAID and advance the implementation of the U.S. Strategy on Countering Corruption.
CIPE’s Rapid Response work in The Gambia and Corrosive Capital initiative were cited in this guide.
