Accountability arrangements to combat corruption using partnerships

Research project web site. The purpose of this project is to improve governance through the use of accountability arrangements to combat corruption in the delivery of infrastructure services in urban and rural contexts, with an emphasis on partnering approaches. It is concerned with such infrastructure services as water supply, sanitation, drainage, access roads and paving, solid waste management, street lighting and community buildings. Based on case studies from countries in South Asia, Southern Africa and Latin America, guiding principles for accountability arrangements to combat corruption in service delivery will be developed.

The project runs from 1 July 2004 until 1 March 2007, and is managed by the Water, Engineering and Development Centre (WEDC) at Loughborough University, UK, with funding (GBP 230,481) from the UK Department for International Development (DFID).
