Left Behind: Corruption in Education and Health Services in Africa
Corruption undermines sustainable development and respect for human rights and basic needs. Regardless of where it occurs in the service delivery chain, corruption trickles down to lead to the denial of access to health care and education. James Bergin sets out in this article for
Transparency International how this results in people in poverty being left behind, with even more severe impacts on women, girls and groups at risk of discrimination. He explores how corruption obstructs access to health care and education in Africa, drawing on corruption risk assessments by Transparency International’s national chapters in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Ghana, Madagascar, Rwanda and Zimbabwe.
