Last week, from 5-7 September, IACA delivered a three-day tailor-made training for the Office of the National Anti-Corruption Commission of Thailand (ONACC). The training took place at the Academy’s campus in Laxenburg, Austria, and brought together 84 participants from the ONACC and other institutions tasked with fighting corruption in Thailand.

This training which focused on anti-corruption trends was conducted by leading international experts, including: Mr. Drago Kos (chair of the OECD Working Group on Bribery in International Business Transactions), Mr. Steven David Brown (specialist in criminal justice focusing on integrity, criminal intelligence, electronic evidence, and computer-based crime), Ms. Elizabeth David-Barrett (head of the Global Programme on Measuring Corruption of IACA), Mr. Hyungwon Kim (crime prevention and criminal justice expert at the UNODC), Ms. Elisabeth Täubl (spokesperson and senior public prosecutor at the Austrian Central Office for Prosecuting Economic Crimes and Corruption), and Ms. Katalin Pallai (independent policy expert, advisor, and educator).

Thematic highlights included asset declaration and verification, corruption and electronic evidence, measuring corruption, the United Nations Convention against Corruption, whistleblower protection, organizational integrity, and ethical dilemma. The lively sessions encouraged the participants to reflect on their own contexts throughout the seminar. 

Tailor-made trainings are the Academy’s customized programmes for specific organizations, corporations, or institutions, addressing the unique challenges that each one faces in preventing and fighting corruption.  For more information about the Academy’s tailor-made training programmes, click. here
