An accent to transperancy and trust

The CMDR COE hosted the Building Integrity for Senior Leaders Course delivered by the BI UK Team at the Defence Academy of the United Kingdom. It was an online iteration that took place from 13 to 15 July 2021. The aim was to raise awareness of corruption risks and enhance understanding of measures and practices to minimize, stop and mitigate the impact of corruption on defence and security sectors and tackle issues of mismanagement of public assets. The course programme encompassed the elements of the NATO Building Integrity Policy, as endorsed at the NATO Summit`2016 in Warsaw, as well as a number of real-life case studies contributing for fruitful discussions and sharing opinions and experience. Corruption and poor governance are recognized as security challenges that undermine freedom, rule of law and economic development, and erode public trust. The principles of integrity, transparency and accountability are paramount and necessitate strong mindset and compliance with a high-standard Code of Conduct. Thus Building Integrity is to be considered at all stages of crisis management and disaster relief operations.
