Abstract
"This guide focuses on the two principal anti-corruption conventions in the Americas, the OAS and UN Conventions. It explains their uses; describes why and how to promote national ratification, implementation and intergovernmental monitoring; and discusses ways to carry out civil society monitoring. It also describes briefly the other conventions having application to corruption issues in the Americas, notably the OECD Convention on Bribery of Foreign Public Officials in International Business Transactions and the UN Convention on Transnational Organized Crime. The guide aims to make anti-corruption conventions accessible to a wide range of civil society organisations in the Americas, including not only those working in the anti-corruption field but also those working on human rights, labour rights, environmental issues, access to information, debt relief and other social issues. It explains the benefits of the conventions and offers practical tools for organisations interested in ensuring that the conventions have a real impact.
