The capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo, Kinshasa, is preparing to host an event of international scope: the Commemorative Conference of the International Anti-Corruption Day. This important event, organized by the General Inspectorate of Finance (IGF), will bring together delegations from different member countries of the Forum of State Inspectorates and Assimilated Control Institutions of Africa (FIGE).
Under the inspiring theme “Mobilizing African Youth in the Fight Against Corruption for a Better Tomorrow”, this conference aims to raise awareness among young Congolese and Africans of the importance of their role in the fight against this scourge that hinders the economic and social development of many countries.
The arrival of delegations from partner countries such as Congo-Brazzaville, Djibouti, Mali and Côte d’Ivoire, demonstrates the commitment of the international community to join forces to fight corruption. The Democratic Republic of Congo, as Vice-President of FIGE, is also preparing to host the organization’s General Assembly in 2026, demonstrating its willingness to play an active role in this fight.
This international meeting is of paramount importance in a context where African youth are positioning themselves as key players for the future. The debates and discussions at this conference will be an opportunity to share innovative ideas, establish solid partnerships and define effective strategies to involve young people in the fight against corruption.
The Congolese authorities are showing their determination to strengthen national efforts in the fight against corruption. By mobilizing young people and raising their awareness of this issue, they hope to pave the way for a more transparent and fairer future for the country and for Africa as a whole.
Beyond simple discussions, this conference represents a major opportunity to advance anti-corruption policies on the continent. The results of this event could have a significant impact on the way the fight against corruption is conducted in Africa, paving the way for concrete and lasting changes.
Together, let us mobilize for a future without corruption, for a fairer and more prosperous Africa. The success of this conference will depend not only on the decisions taken during these days of exchange, but above all on the commitment of each person to continue the fight against this scourge that hinders the development and growth of our societies.
This International Anti-Corruption Conference in Kinshasa in 2024 promises to be a major turning point in the fight against this scourge that hinders the development of our societies. Together, let us join forces to build a more transparent and fairer future for all.
