Anti-Corruption, Integrity & Public Ethics
Integrity systems, financial crime prevention, and building ethical public institutions.
The executive challenge
The problem this program solves
Donor-funded anti-corruption pilots succeed in three districts and fail at scale, and the system cannot explain why one works and the other does not. Under fiscal pressure, every wasted anti-corruption shilling is a borrowed shilling: the gap now compounds through debt service. In five days you learn why well-funded anti-corruption underperforms, and you rehearse the cabinet conversation that changes it.
Context
Why this matters now
Capability
What you will be able to do
- Design anti-corruption policy that survives implementation: evidence, incentives and delivery capability.
- Present anti-corruption evidence at the cabinet table with brevity, honesty and stakes.
- Build anti-corruption delivery and measurement systems that move outcomes, not activity.
- Commission anti-corruption evaluation and read it critically — attribution, gaming and all.
The IPAT Course Standard
The five-day journey
Each day is a deliberate progression in managerial capability — from strategic context, to analytical frameworks, to applied practice, to executive judgement under pressure, to a capstone that produces something your organisation keeps.
IPAT Signature Case™
The Dam at Two-Thirds
A flagship project at a ministry of finance is two-thirds complete when independent review finds the hydrology assumptions optimistic and a cheaper alternative existed. Cancelling embarrasses the government; completing it strains the debt ceiling.
Your decision: Complete, redesign, or pause — and design the public accountability for whichever you choose, anti-corruption evidence included.
IPAT Data Lab™
The anti-corruption data at a devolved county government measures activity; nobody measures delivery.
Dataset: Synthetic administrative and survey data for a devolved county government — the two sources disagree.
Your task: Reconcile the sources, build the delivery dashboard, and defend it before a faculty "cabinet".
A anti-corruption delivery dashboard that resists gaming.
Data → Analysis → Decision, not Data → Code → Certificate
