This program will address the policy goals behind, and the practical workings of, the World Bank Group’s (WBG) processes for seeking to ensure that WBG-financed projects are carried out free of corruption, fraud, and other misuse of donor funds. Those processes include investigating companies where concerns arise that they have not complied with the applicable WBG Procurement, Consultant or Anticorruption Guidelines, sanctioning companies found after adjudication not to have complied with those standards, engaging with companies sanctioned with conditions for release (in some cases with the involvement of independent integrity compliance monitors), and facilitating proactive training and mentoring programs for companies and other stakeholders in WBG-financed projects to promote ethical practices.
Pre-registration for this program is encouraged. As always, please feel free to share this invitation with colleagues. D.C. Bar membership is not required to attend.
