Youth project against corruption in Egypt

The “Youth Against Corruption in Egypt” project, implemented by Partners for Transparency with support from the German Federal Foreign Office and funding from the ZEWIC program – Institute for Foreign Cultural Relations (IFA), targets over 700 young men and women over a period of seven months in five governorates (Cairo, Beheira, Minya, Sharqia, and Daqahlia). The project aims to:

Raising awareness of the concepts and effects of corruption by providing accurate definitions of corruption based on national, regional and international agreements, and identifying its forms, manifestations and indicators at the local and global levels, while highlighting its connection to human rights and the Sustainable Development Goals.
Understanding the Egyptian context in the field of combating corruption by identifying the legal framework and national policies for combating corruption in Egypt, while discussing contemporary issues related to corruption.
Empowering young people with community oversight tools by training them on the concepts of active citizenship, mechanisms for reporting corruption, and how to accurately monitor and document corruption practices, thereby contributing to enhancing transparency and accountability at the local level.
To stimulate youth participation in public affairs and encourage participants to play leadership roles in combating corruption, whether through community initiatives, election monitoring, or positive influence on policymaking.
Building a generation of young leaders who advocate for integrity by preparing young people capable of carrying anti-corruption messages within their communities, and working to bring about a cultural and behavioral change that promotes the values of transparency and rejects corruption in all its forms.
