Abstract
In Peru, in 1997, over a thousand participants from over 90 countries joined in the historic Lima Declaration, which marked the creation of a global coalition united in the fight against corruption. Barely a couple of years later it is rewarding to see how this coalition has continued to grow in strength, resolve and impact. After initial reluctance, TI now enjoys a full and productive partnership with the World Bank, which has become a most valued promoter of the anti-corruption agenda. Regional banks and major grantgiving institutions such as the UNDP are also actively lending their support in promoting good governance, by tightening their own lending requirements. A lot of press has been given of late to the growing movement in favour of debt relief for the developing world. We welcome the fact that in this debate accountability and transparency are recognised as a necessary part of the platform for an agreement to start wiping out third world debt.
