#IACC2024 | In Debt to Nature: How Financing Election Campaigns Drives Environmental Destruction
This Workshop took place during the 21st International Anti-Corruption Conference (IACC) held in Vilnius, Lithuania, from 18-21 June 2024. More info: https://iaccseries.org/ Description: What do we do when political finance creates incentives for the powerful to destroy the environment? We will examine how running for office in many places is paid for by harming nature, and how this harms people and democracy itself. We'll hear of the impacts of this problem, exploring experiences in Indonesia, Zambia, the Philippines, and Peru. Join colleagues working from conservation to political finance to explore solutions. Coordinated by: World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) Featuring: U4 Anti-Corruption Resource Centre, National Democratic Institute (NDI), International Foundation for Electoral Systems (IFES), Bantay Kita and Proética, Transparency International Peru (TI – Peru)
