Role of Youth in Fighting Corruption

Here are some suggestions of what youth can do to fight corruption:

1. Refuse to pay bribes and/or report requests for bribes from public officials;
2. Send articles on corruption to the media or start a newsletter by youth;
3. Form anti-corruption clubs in schools/colleges that organize social events, stimulate group discussions, request that courses on anti-corruption, good governance and ethics be included in the school curriculum, publicly declare schools a “corruption-free zone,” and monitor and report any violations.
4. Research and disseminate information on government procedures and entitlements to the citizenry.
