This will help us scope the issue.
Content
1. Overview
2. Internal integrity management systems at multilaterals
3. Incorporating anti-corruption safeguards into programmes to protect funds
Summary
This answer provides a list of literature on anti-corruption mainstreaming at multilaterals. Overall, it can be said that while there is growing awareness among multilateral donors about the potential benefits of mainstreaming anti-corruption, efforts nonetheless face political, institutional and operational challenges.
The literature is grouped into the two main components of anti-corruption mainstreaming as it is understood for the purpose of this query: internal integrity management systems and incorporating anti-corruption safeguards into programmes to protect funds.
