Tackling Corruption and Integrity Failures in Water Sector Climate Adaptation

Session organized with the collaboration of the Green Climate Fund - Independent Integrity Unit.

Adaptation of the water sector and populations to climate change is an immense undertaking and investment is critical. However, a serious cause for concern is corruption and integrity failures leading to maladaptation in project: selection, design and implementation. This challenge is not insurmountable.
