UNWE Research Team Enters Phase 2 of Comparative Anti-Corruption Framework Analysis
As part of our ongoing Erasmus+ project, “Development and Implementation of Anti-Corruption Education Programs for Universities in Bulgaria, Greece, and Croatia,” the University of National and World Economy (UNWE) research team has officially entered the second phase of its comparative legal framework analysis.
This stage focuses on mapping and evaluating anti-corruption policies and legislation across Bulgaria, Greece, Croatia, the European Union, and global standards. The insights gained will directly shape the educational tools and resources developed later in the project.
16 Key Focus Areas Identified:
Our legal experts have outlined the core pillars for national and regional analysis, including:
Corruption of high-level officials and political/white collar crimes
Private sector corruption
Illicit enrichment
Trading in influence
Links between corruption and organized crime
Corruption as a threat to international peace and security
Whistleblower protection
Anti-money laundering and asset recovery
Access to information
Beneficial ownership regulations
Cyber-corruption
Asset declaration
Lobbying
Financing of political parties
Conflicts of interest
Public procurement
The results of this research will form the basis of national reports and a comparative synthesis report, all of which will directly inform the next project outputs—including a digital anti-corruption course and an educational podcast series.
Stay tuned as we continue working towards building transparent, accountable, and resilient institutions through education and international collaboration.
