■ CORRUPTION:
Corruption is an insidious plague that has a wide range
of corrosive effects on societies. It undermines democracy
and the rule of law, leads to violations of human rights,
distorts markets, erodes the quality of life and allows
organized crime, terrorism and other threats to human
security to flourish. This evil phenomenon is found in all
countries.

17. Official corruption

which established human rights are violated, but not as a
direct violation. Freedom from official corruption is not
enshrined as a universal and inalienable right to which a
person isinherently entitled.
