Anti-Corruption Practitioners Network (ACPN) HomepageThe network is a group of people committed to the fight against public corruption in the Eastern European and the CIS countries. The members of the network are practitioners and experts working in state institutions or international organizations. This website is the principal working space of the network, containing information provided by the members and allowing them to collaborate with each other to meet operational objectives. The goal of this interactive tool is to address specific legal and operational problems of existing anti-corruption institutions in the countries of the region and to support the development of new anti-corruption institutions. The idea of creating the network was formulated during the Regional Forum on Anti-Corruption Institutions, held in Vienna from the 12th to the 14th of December 2005. Participants of the Forum expressed their support for the creation of a Practitioners’ Network that could maintain contact with each other and allow them to share information and technical advice.
