Kiribati has cemented its position as a global champion in the fight against corruption, serving as a beacon of accountability and transparency, particularly among Small Island Developing States (SIDS). Recent reports highlight the nation’s growing reputation as a leader in fostering integrity and combating corruption on the international stage.
The Office of the Beretitenti stated that accountability is well understood and practiced in Kiribati. Notably, formal accountability has significantly strengthened due to increased focus and financial support since the change of government in 2016.
The report also emphasized that by being recognized as a regional leader in accountability, Kiribati’s accountability ecosystem can be further enhanced. The establishment of integrity institutions in the last decade, along with the independence granted to these bodies, is encouraging.
Further enhancing Kiribati’s global standing is the recent resolution from Small Island Developing States (SIDS), aimed at strengthening the implementation of the United Nations Convention against Corruption (UNCAC).
