UNESCO: Corruption in education: breaking the taboo
“Corrupt Schools, Corrupt Universities: What can be done?”, a report published by UNESCO’s International Institute for Educational Planning (IIEP) will be launched on 6 June. Read the interview with authors Jacques Hallak and Muriel Poisson.
The IIEP will hold its first international Summer School on “Transparency, accountability and anti-corruption measures in education” from 6 to 15 June 2007.
Bribery in teacher recruitment, embezzlement of funds destined for education, faked calls for tender, illegal registration fees, academic fraud – the list goes on and on.
Based on six years of research and the experience of over 60 countries, “Corrupt Schools, Corrupt Universities” analyses the problem, points the way forward and outlines anti-corruption strategies, illustrated by success stories.
The IIEP Summer School on “Transparency, accountability and anti-corruption measures in education” will use the findings of the report.
