However, corruption risks – ranging from lack of transparency in project financing and land acquisitions to bribery in the procurement process – pose significant threats to the integrity and effectiveness of renewable energy initiatives.\n\nWithout addressing these challenges, the global shift toward clean energy may fail to deliver equitable benefits, particularly to vulnerable communities that are often left out of decision-making processes.","2024-10-09","Basel Institute on Governance; WWF; Transparency International; TRAFFIC",[148,149],2695,[226],{"url":227,"caption":200},"https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.zoom.us\u002Fmeeting\u002Fregister\u002FtZIoceiqrz8iHNZO9KoRgP0MLs0OOL3UEnwe#\u002Fregistration","tackling-corruption-challenges-for-a-just-transition-implications-for-renewable-energy-2695",{"id":230,"storage":31,"filename_disk":231,"filename_download":33,"title":219,"type":34,"created_on":232,"modified_on":232,"charset":28,"filesize":233,"width":37,"height":186,"duration":28,"embed":28,"description":28,"location":28,"tags":28,"metadata":234,"focal_point_x":28,"focal_point_y":28,"tus_id":28,"tus_data":28,"uploaded_on":232},"b580ad9d-c713-43cd-a2b1-85b78f5e39b3","b580ad9d-c713-43cd-a2b1-85b78f5e39b3.webp","2025-02-17T20:28:27.000Z",22040,{},[],[],{"id":238,"title":239,"body":240,"date_start":241,"date_end":241,"organiser":242,"type":11,"topics":243,"nid":244,"links":245,"slug":252,"summary":28,"image":253,"tags":259,"countries":260},181,"Roundtable: Good governance and the just transition: implications for renewable energy companies","\u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fform.jotform.com\u002F242451461877058\">\n  \n      \n              \n\n\n      \n  \n\u003C\u002Fa>\n\n\nThis invitation-only event during NYC Climate Week will bring together senior stakeholders from the renewable energy sector for a roundtable discussion on emerging corruption risks in the sector and their implications for a just transition. \n\nThe event will be framed around findings from a Basel Institute working paper produced by Mark Robinson, Executive Director of the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI) and Maja de Vibe, SVP Sustainability, Governance and Compliance at Statkraft.\n\nIt will be moderated by the Basel Institute's President Peter Maurer. Alongside the report authors, the roundtable will also feature Helen Clark, Chair of EITI and former Prime Minister of New Zealand.\n\n### Roundtable discussion\n\nThe roundtable will focus on identifying opportunities for advancing collective industry action to tackle governance and corruption risks to ensure the goal of tripling renewable energy capacity by 2030 can be realised. It will discuss the linkages between good governance and a just transition by exploring the importance of achieving a transition that benefits communities and society at large while generating sustainable, long-term economic value. \n\nIt will also examine how weak governance and corruption could jeopardise this goal and will discuss how industry associations and companies can address these challenges to build trust with stakeholders, meet regulatory expectations and realise the ambition of a just transition. \n\nThe discussion will draw on lessons from the extractive industries to identify options for accelerating collective action in the renewable energy sector.\n\n### Logistics and registration\n\nThe event is organised by the TAI (Trust, Accountability and Inclusion) Collaborative with the Basel Institute on Governance. It will take place in hybrid format on Wednesday 25 September at 14:00 to 15:30 at a venue near Grand Central Station in New York.\n\nAttendance is subject to confirmation by the organising committee; please complete the form below to request an invitation either in person or online.","2024-09-25","TAI; Basel Institute on Governance",[148,149],2683,[246,249],{"url":247,"caption":248},"https:\u002F\u002Fform.jotform.com\u002F242451461877058","Request invitation",{"url":250,"caption":251},"https:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fpublications\u002Fwp-53","View related Working Paper","roundtable-good-governance-and-the-just-transition-implications-for-renewable-energy-companies-2683",{"id":254,"storage":31,"filename_disk":255,"filename_download":33,"title":239,"type":34,"created_on":256,"modified_on":256,"charset":28,"filesize":257,"width":37,"height":80,"duration":28,"embed":28,"description":28,"location":28,"tags":28,"metadata":258,"focal_point_x":28,"focal_point_y":28,"tus_id":28,"tus_data":28,"uploaded_on":256},"02cd1b9b-1f04-4bb6-9615-501772df20fe","02cd1b9b-1f04-4bb6-9615-501772df20fe.webp","2025-02-17T20:28:28.000Z",27566,{},[],[],{"id":262,"title":263,"body":264,"date_start":265,"date_end":265,"organiser":104,"type":11,"topics":266,"nid":268,"links":269,"slug":273,"summary":28,"image":274,"tags":279,"countries":280},182,"Leveraging Collective Action and business integrity tools: From theory to practice","Leading lights in the field of anti-corruption Collective Action held an online discussion on practical integrity tools and how to use them effectively to advance anti-corruption initiatives with the private sector.\n\nThe webinar featured:\n\n13:00–13:15: Welcoming remarks and launch of the Basel Institute \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fbaselgovernance.org\u002Fnews\u002Fcollective-action-learning-goes-online-0\">eLearning course on Collective Action\u003C\u002Fa> – Scarlet Wannenwetsch, Senior Collective Action Specialist, Basel Institute on Governance\n\n13:15–14:00: Introduction of business integrity tools:\n\n\n- The Integrity App – Carolina Echevarria, Head, Global Secretariat, Alliance for Integrity\n- Ethics Assessment Tools – Dr Paul Vorster, Head of Research Bureau [tbc], The Ethics Institute\n- Transparency International Business Integrity Tools – Kaunain Rahman, Business Integrity Specialist, Transparency International \n\n\n14:00–14:15 Looking ahead: The use of artificial intelligence to enhance business integrity – Nils Köbis, Professor for the Human Understanding of Algorithms and Machines at the Research Center Trustworthy Data Science and Security, University Duisburg-Essen\n\n14:15–14:30: Q&A and closing remarks","2024-09-19",[267,149],"Collective Action",2665,[270],{"url":271,"caption":272},"https:\u002F\u002Fyoutube.com\u002Fplaylist?list=PLYRnhpCcnLP9ZgBecTzdIy8_iCfG9Zedh&si=DCjdWqrIF9Q8HwJH","View recordings","leveraging-collective-action-and-business-integrity-tools-from-theory-to-practice-2665",{"id":275,"storage":31,"filename_disk":276,"filename_download":33,"title":263,"type":34,"created_on":256,"modified_on":256,"charset":28,"filesize":277,"width":37,"height":80,"duration":28,"embed":28,"description":28,"location":28,"tags":28,"metadata":278,"focal_point_x":28,"focal_point_y":28,"tus_id":28,"tus_data":28,"uploaded_on":256},"8a7bd6d5-e313-4643-892f-06f45b08c601","8a7bd6d5-e313-4643-892f-06f45b08c601.webp",17284,{},[],[],{"id":282,"title":283,"body":284,"date_start":285,"date_end":285,"organiser":170,"type":286,"topics":287,"nid":288,"links":289,"slug":296,"summary":28,"image":297,"tags":303,"countries":304},183,"How to use China's anti-money laundering laws to fight the illegal wildlife trade?","At the next public meeting of the \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fenvironmental-corruption.org\u002Fworking-groups\u002Ffollow-the-money\">Follow-the-Money Working Group\u003C\u002Fa>, Hsun-Wen (Linda) Chou, Anti-Money Laundering Project Manager at TRAFFIC China, will talk about the use of China’s anti-money laundering laws to combat the illegal trade in wild species.\n\nShe will share a \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.traffic.org\u002Fsite\u002Fassets\u002Ffiles\u002F24135\u002Fa_review_of_chinas_anti-money_laundering_laws_on_combating_the_illegal_trade_in_wild_species.pdf\">comparative analysis\u003C\u002Fa> of the national legislation in the United States, the United Kingdom and China published earlier this year. \n\nThe meeting will be held on Zoom in English, with simultaneous interpretation in Spanish and French.

Beneficial ownership data, which reveals the individuals who ultimately own or control a company, is a powerful tool for identifying and mitigating corrupt practices.

Each represented a different stakeholder group commonly involved in anti-corruption Collective Action initiatives: government, the private sector, civil society and multilateral organisations.\n\nThe Basel Institute's Vanessa Hans moderated the panel discussion, featuring:\n\n\n- Vitor Geromel of the OECD \n- Daniela Santana Silva of the Office of the Comptroller General of the Republic of Chile\n- Soji Apampa of the Convention on Business Integrity\n- Vibeke Lyssand Leirvag of Felicia Designs Ltd\n","2022-10-19",[267,149],2364,[1685,1687],{"url":1686,"caption":1554},"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.youtube.com\u002Fwatch?v=xIz3EIAbPXY",{"url":1688,"caption":1689},"https:\u002F\u002Fcollective-action.com\u002Fnews\u002Fcollective-action-set-up-for-success-practical-insights-on-enhancing-business-integrity-through-multi-stakeholder-collaboration-2294","View event summary and takeaways","anti-corruption-collective-action-mainstreaming-multi-stakeholder-approaches-for-integrity-and-fair-business-2364",{"id":1692,"storage":31,"filename_disk":1693,"filename_download":33,"title":1679,"type":34,"created_on":1694,"modified_on":1694,"charset":28,"filesize":1695,"width":37,"height":1696,"duration":28,"embed":28,"description":28,"location":28,"tags":28,"metadata":1697,"focal_point_x":28,"focal_point_y":28,"tus_id":28,"tus_data":28,"uploaded_on":1694},"c3750177-3c38-4e32-980e-5d0f8cfa7810","c3750177-3c38-4e32-980e-5d0f8cfa7810.webp","2025-02-17T20:33:48.000Z",30028,400,{},[],[],{"id":1701,"title":1702,"body":1703,"date_start":1704,"date_end":1704,"organiser":104,"type":11,"topics":1705,"nid":1706,"links":1707,"slug":1716,"summary":28,"image":1717,"tags":1723,"countries":1724},242,"Basel AML Index 2022: technical briefing and Q&A","This public briefing follows the publication of the 11th Public Edition of the Basel AML Index, a leading country risk ranking for money laundering and terrorist financing.\n\nBasel AML Index project lead Kateryna Boguslavska explained the key findings of the 2022 Index and report.

evidence on informality and its role in preventing and combating corruption.\n\nHer presentation is based on research conducted in East and Central Africa for the UK-funded Global Integrity-Anti Corruption Evidence Programme (GI-ACE).\n\nCorruption does not take place in plain sight, but under the cover of informal settings and through informal networks – networks of individuals and groups that informally mobilise and redistribute access to public resources or facilitate corrupt and criminal behaviours.\n\nThis is why it is important for anti-corruption practitioners to understand informality: the unwritten rules and hidden practices that members of a particular network tacitly understand and use to solve problems and achieve specific goals.\n\nHow can anti-corruption practitioners and donors better understand and harness informality to design more effective anti-corruption interventions?\n\nWatch the video to find out.","2022-02-17","Global Integrity-Anti

As these tools become more widely available, researchers, analysts and investigators are increasingly experimenting with ways to incorporate them into their work. At the same time, AI cannot replace the expertise, judgement and contextual understanding that investigators bring to a case. Instead, AI should be seen as a tool that can complement professional analysis, while human oversight remains essential to ensure that findings are interpreted accurately and responsibly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch3>Opportunities\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\n\u003Cul>\n\t\u003Cli>Managing large and complex datasets. Investigations into corruption and environmental crime often involve vast amounts of documentation, financial records and communications. AI tools can help review, organise and analyse these datasets more efficiently, helping investigators identify relevant information and navigate complex cases more effectively.\u003C\u002Fli>\n\t\u003Cli>Supporting research and analysis. Large language models can assist with tasks such as summarising lengthy documents, extracting key information and highlighting potential patterns across datasets. These tools can provide preliminary insights that investigators can then explore and verify through further analysis.\u003C\u002Fli>\n\t\u003Cli>Expanding access to specialised analytical tools. Some types of analysis that previously required specialised expertise, such as linguistic analysis of communications, may become more accessible with AI-assisted tools. This can help investigators explore new approaches and strengthen evidence analysis.\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003C\u002Ful>\n\n\u003Ch3>Risks\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\n\u003Cul>\n\t\u003Cli>Confident but inaccurate outputs. AI systems can produce responses that appear convincing but contain errors or misleading information. Without careful verification, these outputs could introduce inaccuracies into investigative work.\u003C\u002Fli>\n\t\u003Cli>Overreliance on AI-generated results. Because AI outputs are often presented in clear and authoritative language, users may be tempted to trust them too readily. Maintaining a critical approach and verifying results remains essential.\u003C\u002Fli>\n\t\u003Cli>Limited transparency raises accountability challenges. Many AI systems operate as “black boxes”, making it difficult to understand how they generate their conclusions.
