The United Nations Convention Against Corruption (UNCAC) is an international treaty aimed at combating corruption in both the public and private sectors. Adopted in 2003, it provides a comprehensive framework for countries to implement measures that prevent corruption, promote transparency, and enhance accountability. The convention encourages nations to adopt effective laws and practices to address corruption-related offenses. UNCAC also emphasizes international cooperation, allowing countries to work together in investigating and prosecuting corruption cases. It includes provisions for asset recovery, ensuring that stolen assets can be returned to their rightful owners. By fostering collaboration, the convention seeks to create a global environment resistant to corruption.
