Who can benefit from GIACC’s resources
GIACC’s resources are provided for the assistance of all those involved in the infrastructure, construction and engineering sectors, including governments, project owners, funders, contractors, consulting engineering firms and suppliers of equipment, materials and services.
GIACC’s objective and policy
GIACC’s objective is to promote the implementation of anti-corruption measures as an integral part of government, corporate and project management.
GIACC does not investigate or report on allegations of corruption.
GIACC has formed an international Advisory Council to advise on how GIACC can achieve its objective, and how the GIACC Resource Centre can be improved. For further information on the council and its members, see Advisory Council.
GIACC has formed anti-corruption alliances with several international, regional and national organisations. Under these alliances, GIACC and these organisations agree to work together in the infrastructure, construction and engineering sectors “to promote the implementation of anti-corruption measures as an integral part of government, corporate and project management”. For further information, see Alliances.
GIACC is developing a network of affiliates which will be part of the international GIACC network, and which will lead the promotion of GIACC's objectives in the affiliate's home country. For further information, see Affiliates.
GIACC’s head office is located in England. However, GIACC operates internationally.
Foundation of GIACC
GIACC was founded in 2008. For information on its formation, see Foundation of GIACC.
