Project description: This proposal is for multi-year support to a collaborative program between WBI (with Bank Operations) and DFID, with a particular focus on Anglophone Africa and Eastern Europe and, to a lesser extent, South Asia. As well as a three-year co-financing commitment, the proposal recommends annual consultations between WBI/Operations and DFID to review progress and make changes in country/thematic allocations, to reflect changing circumstances. Principal elements of the proposal are: i) corruption surveys and diagnostics (in countries where these are not already underway); ii) support to the formation of broad civil society/government/ parliament/private sector coalitions and action planning, using corruption surveys, workshops and seminars as a catalyst; and iii) applied research and dissemination in selected areas (e.g. parliamentary-executive relations, public outreach campaigns) based on lessons learned from World Bank and other agency experience.
