- The Water Integrity Network
-
The Water Integrity Network, WIN, aims to fight corruption in water worldwide in order to reduce poverty. The WIN is an open and inclusive global network that promotes anti-corruption activities and coalition-building at the local, regional and global levels, and between actors from civil society, private and public sectors, media and governments.
The WIN is committed to accountability, transparency, integrity, honesty and mutual support and knowledge exchange among its members. These characteristics, to which any member should adhere, unite the network.
The WIN is a response to the fact that corruption stunts development and remains one of the least addressed challenges within the water sector. Corruption in water resources management and water supply and sanitation services has as of yet not been systematically monitored, analyzed or addressed. Reducing corruption in water worldwide will require the establishment and action of local, national and international coalitions.
