Controlling Corruption rests on the 1998 Laurentian Seminar participant’s assertion that the institution of parliament and parliamentarians are crucial in serving as a bridge between state and society and in implementing and/or strengthening the good governance values of accountability, transparency and participation (see Figure 1: The Ecology of Governance). It also claims that parliaments play a key and a leadership role in encouraginggood governance and, furthermore, that parliaments and parliamentarians need to work regionally and internationally in order to effect change.

USING NETWORKS FOR CAPACITY ENHANCEMENT - Lessons from Anticorruption Parliamentary Networks. Meaghan Campbell, GOPAC Program Manager and Frederick C. Stapenhurst, of the World Bank Institute
National,
regional, or global networks of parliamentarians are
proving important vehicles for enhancing their capacity
and the effectiveness of parliaments in developing
countries in Asia, Africa, and Latin America and the
Caribbean, particularly in fighting corruption and
mitigating its negative impacts on economic and human development.
This Capacity Enhancement (CE) Brief reviews the activities of several
such networks worldwide at the individual, regional,
and global levels that are making a difference in
the ability of parliamentarians to address corruption
in their countries.
