The United Nations Global Compact project, Scaling up Anti-Corruption Collective Action within Global Compact Local Networks, is a four-year global project launched in December 2019 to support collective actions from Global Compact Local Networks (GCLNs) and promote public-private cooperation in fighting corruption.

The project Scaling up Anti-Corruption Collective Action within Global Compact Local Networks adopts a three pronged approach:

  1. development of Anti-Corruption Collective Action Playbook for GCLNs to mainstream the understanding and uptake of Collective Action,
  2. global launch and roll-out of the Playbook to enable GCLNs in understanding and using the Collective Action methodology to identify and address corruption issues and
  3. support GCLNs in Kenya, Brazil, India and Ukraine in their Collective Action initiatives.

Underlying this approach is an overarching goal of facilitating public-private cooperation on Collective Action through policy dialogue and engagement with governments and non-business stakeholders.

Scaling up Anti-Corruption Collective Action within Global Compact Local Networks is funded under the Third Funding Round of the Siemens Integrity Initiative. The United Nations Global Compact has previously implemented Collective Action projects with its GCLNs and other partners in the First and Second Funding Rounds.
