Our Vision: A world where power serves the people, and no one fears speaking out against corruption
What is the UNCAC?
The United Nations Convention against Corruption (UNCAC) is the world’s only comprehensive, legally binding international anti-corruption treaty with global coverage. The Convention addresses five core anti-corruption areas: prevention, criminalization and law enforcement, international cooperation, asset recovery, and technical assistance. With 192 Parties, it has achieved near-universal ratification, making it the cornerstone of the global anti-corruption architecture.
Article 13 promotes the active participation of civil society and the public in anti-corruption efforts. The UNCAC’s Secretariat is hosted by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) in Vienna, Austria.
Who are we?
The Global Civil Society Coalition for the UNCAC is the global civil society network of 400+ organizations in 130+ countries, promoting the monitoring, implementation, and strengthening of the Convention. Our office is based in Vienna, Austria.
