This month IACA has continued to strengthen its cooperation with some of Austria’s leading academic institutions in the areas of anti-corruption and compliance.

On Monday, Martin Kreutner, Dean and Executive Secretary, was at the Diplomatic Academy of Vienna to lead a training for Academy staff on anti-corruption and compliance in administration and management.

This followed a separate day-long lecture Mr. Kreutner gave last week at the University of Vienna in the latter’s Master of Arts in Human Rights programme at the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute on Human Rights. His teaching was the latest example of the long-standing close ties between IACA and the Institute that include, inter alia, lecturing in their respective master’s programmes, thesis supervision, library access, and mutual participation in examinations as external experts.

IACA and the University of Vienna signed a Memorandum of Understanding in 2012.

IACA has also previously partnered with the Vienna University of Economics and Business (WU), having among other activities co-sponsored a three-day workshop organized by WU in 2016 on inter-agency cooperation and good governance in Africa.
