Since 1999, TI-LB has been on the front lines of the fight against corruption, working to strengthen institutional integrity across Lebanons public and private sectors. As the national chapter of Transparency International, we believe in more than just envisioning a corruption-free societywe are actively making it happen by driving change, empowering citizens, and holding institutions accountable. With a people-centered approach, TI-LB tackles corruption from multiple angles, guided by a robust Impact Matrix that emphasizes three core areas: Policy & Institutional Change, Behavior Change, and Awareness & Outreach. We operate as a guiding thread and conveying channel between international organizations, civil society, and citizens, creating a chain of dialogue and collaboration that promotes a participative approach to anti-corruption efforts. This continuous exchange of information fosters transparency ensures well-informed communities, and bridges gaps between global standards and local needs. To achieve meaningful, lasting change, TI-LB builds robust, long-term partnerships with a network of dedicated national, local, and international organizations working across Lebanon. These partnerships enhance our strategic reach, propelling TI-LB to deliver anti-corruption initiatives that are both globally aligned and locally impactful. By combining international standards with deep community engagement, we ensure that our programs not only meet global benchmarks but are also highly responsive to Lebanons unique governance challenges and diverse community needs. Project Background Catalysing Anti-Corruption Reforms in Iraq project brief Transparency International Lebanon (TI-LB), in collaboration with UNDP Iraq and the resulting development of the National Integrity System (NIS) assessment, seeks to support the creation of an enabling environment for anti-corruption reform in Iraq. This intervention focuses on two main components. First, TI-LB will engage public officialsparticularly the Commission of Integrity, judiciary, and Members of Parliamentby raising awareness on key anti-corruption legal frameworks such as access to information, illicit enrichment, public procurement, and whistleblower protection. This will be complemented by peer learning and exposure to the best regional practices. Second, TI-LB will strengthen civil society engagement by equipping investigative journalists and activists with the tools, knowledge, and resources to conduct anti-corruption investigations and advocacy. This includes training on access to information and support for launching impactful reports and campaigns. The initiative is guided by the findings of the NIS report and aims to build institutional and civic capacity for sustainable anti-corruption efforts in Iraq.
