“Corruption prevention is neither an expression of mistrust nor control. Rather, it places the need for legal certainty and integrity of employees at the forefront, protecting them from false accusations.” – Prof. Dr. Carsten Stark
Our work aims to prevent both material and immaterial damage caused by corruption while fostering a fair and transparent society. We offer our services to municipalities, government authorities, and companies both domestically in germany and internationally, developing tailored, practical solutions that meet the specific requirements of our clients.
Our institute has gathered administrative experts, jurists, and social scientists for the interdisciplinary advancement of the practice of corruption prevention. This interdisciplinary approach is of particular importance in the consulting services that we provide to our clients as it allows us to develop flexible offers and solutions tailored to their specific needs. From short presentations on specific subjects, through training of executive staff, to practical implementation of prevention measures, we offer our clients what they need to professionally prepare their business or public authority to withstand corruption. We also provide training programs for anti-corruption or integrity officers and conduct risk or vulnerability analyses for entire organizational units.
The Institute for Corruption Prevention’s staff are all professors at institutions of higher education who are capable of giving a sophisticated presentation on the current state of research, as well as practitioners who have years of experience in advising and supporting businesses and public authorities.
Of great importance to us is the exchange of experience between investigating authorities, (public) employers, businesses, anti-corruption officers, compliance managers, and researchers. For this reason, we usually conduct an annual conference on the subject.
