Since 1993, Transparency International (TI) has been leading the fight against corruption worldwide, working in more than 100 countries as part of a broader global movement. What TI’s work has consistently proven is that corruption can be challenged.
People between the age of 18 and 35 are invited to submit a short video clip presenting their idea on new ways to fight corruption.
IMPACT

- Recipients should be working in a country or region in which open society is at risk, and their anti-corruption work should strive to ensure that society does not falter.
COURAGE
- The action must be particularly exemplary, inspirational and deserving of wide international recognition.
- The recipient should be recognised for the potential or actual risks of their anti-corruption work.
