Gateway – Corruption Assessment Toolbox

By Kieron L Jones, on 13 February 2012

The Gateway is co-funded by the European Commission and the United Nations Development Programme. It aims to provide a set of tools to aid project developers to evaluate and select tools for corruption assessments. Over 300 tools to diagnose and analyse corruption are currently indexed. In this context a tool is defined on the website as ‘any research methodology whose primary aim is to identify the extent of corruption, corruption risks, and/or anti-corruption (integrity, transparency, accountability) in a given context’. It is possible to search tools for nation/ international analysis, or by type of corruption e.g. government, business. Each record details the methodology, coverage and then links through to its website. In many cases reports based on the tool can then be downloaded.
