About the event
Infrastructure is key to national economic development strategies and provides necessary human services. However, infrastructure development and associated corruption have tremendous impacts on conservation efforts. This relationship can be overlooked due to the discrete and hidden ways that corruption occurs and the fact that infrastructure sector corruption is often assessed in relation to economic inefficiencies and losses, rather than through a conservation lens. Understanding the relationship between infrastructure, corruption, and conservation facilitates the elaboration of effective anti-corruption responses and the improvement of infrastructure development and conservation outcomes. In this event, the authors of a new TNRC brief on The Impacts of Infrastructure Sector Corruption on Conservation will join a panel of experts for discussion of anti-corruption approaches that can increase integrity, transparency, and accountability, how they can be coupled with complementary advocacy efforts and direct action, and where our field needs to go next.
