————————————————————————–
The Center for International Private Enterprise would like to share an opportunity with our partners. The World Bank Institute, sponsored by the Belgian government, has launched two essay competitions on fighting corruption through collective action.
The World Bank Institute and partners are inviting students, young professionals and practitioners to participate in a competition on private sector anti-corruption efforts. One of the competitions is intended for students and young professionals, while the other is intended for practitioners. Students and professionals may participate by submitting an essay or business model on the topic and practitioners may participate by submitting their experiences on fighting corruption. More information can be found at: info.worldbank.org/etools/antic/anticorruption_competition.asp
Main prizes cover participation and travel expenses to the World Bank Institute’s Executive Development Program: “Fighting Corruption through Collective Action in Today’s Competitive Marketplaces” that will be held in Washington D.C., June 8 to 11. Winners will also be given the opportunity to present their work at this program and will have their case study published on the World Bank Institute’s portal.
The deadline for submitting work to the World Bank Institute is April 30, 2009.
The Executive Development Program and essay competition are part of a larger multi-stakeholder initiative on private sector collective action in which CIPE participates.
If you have questions about the Program and essay competition, please contact acedp@worldbank.org.
