and Fight against
Corruption

2. Fight against corruption shall not
be absent from RIO+20

10 Very Clean 0 Highly corrupt

4. Transparency is a must
Sustainable development goals
cannot be achieved in a context of
corruption
Why is corruption not even mentioned
in Rio+20 Zero Draft?
One cannot fight against corruption by
ignoring it

5. Resources without control
Where will the 100 billon US dollars
committed per year by 2020 go …
in a context of:
• Secrecy,
• Discretionary power,
• Low social participation,
• Lack of independent monitoring?
ETHOS Conference Delia M. Ferreira Rubio Sao Paulo, June 2012
6. Lack of transparency
No/Scarce access to information
Decision without participation
Absence of rules / procedures that
guarantee public ethics
Absence of independent monitoring
Weak accountability
Impunity (scarce investigation /
prosecution / penalties)
ETHOS Conference Delia M. Ferreira Rubio Sao Paulo, June 2012
7. Corruption hinders sustainability
Undermines poverty reduction
Distorts green economy grounds/ goals
Affects human and social development
Stalls progress on MDGs
Means less education, less health,
worse access to clean water, lack of
infrastructure, more inequality
ETHOS Conference Delia M. Ferreira Rubio Sao Paulo, June 2012
8. What do we need?
Anticorruption safeguards
Access to information
Participation
Integrity
Oversight
Accountability
Strong governance
ETHOS Conference Delia M. Ferreira Rubio Sao Paulo, June 2012
