About
International Anti-Corruption Day is a chance to celebrate the people and organizations working against corruption and to show what their efforts mean in practice for people’s lives, public services, the environment, economies and institutions.
On 11 December 2026, the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR), the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) and the Basel Institute on Governance will bring together diplomats, policymakers, practitioners and experts in Vienna and online. Reflecting the theme Connecting the Dots: Exposing the Links Between Corruption and Crime, the conference will examine how corruption enables organized crime, helps illicit profits move through the global financial system and weakens the institutions meant to protect society.
Through a series of lively, cross-disciplinary discussions, the event will connect this wider theme to practical challenges: working with the private sector, harnessing AI against corruption, protecting environmental action, addressing the links between crypto assets and corruption, strengthening institutional oversight and safeguarding public money. It will celebrate progress, showcase practical approaches from different regions and sectors and identify opportunities for stronger cooperation to prevent corruption, follow the money and disrupt the criminal networks it enables.
