The Event dedicated to the International Anti-Corruption Day took place

In the 21st century, the fight against corruption is being supplemented with new tools, such as the BizProect.am website that raises and reports on corruption cases and issues in the business sector in Armenia. Mr. Arkady Sahakyan, Chairman of the Governing Board of the CSOs Anti-Corruption Coalition of Armenia, said this in his speech. “It is very important that with this site we have been able to provide certain transparency in the work with our government agencies, as the site has enabled business representatives to quickly communicate and report any violations,” he said. Arkadi Sahakyan also added that being elected to the post into the coalition is a great honor and responsibility, and the role of CSOs in fighting corruption is important: “Experience shows that Armenian NGOs have so much skill and role and capability that they can even be a consultant in the international arena with great expertise.”

Karen Zadoyan, Coordinator of the Secretariat of CSO Anti-Corruption Coalition of Armenia, noted that the priority for the Coalition is to be sovereign and pro-Armenian, and that the Coalition will continue its efforts to promote a happy, harmonious and corruption-free society in Armenia. “We have now launched a coalition modernization program, as we believe in the logic of the changes taking place in Armenia in spring 2018, that we each, in turn must carry out this transformation and modernization, as a result of which we have undertaken a stronger monitoring of anti-corruption reforms in our country and functions of the main actor of evaluation,” he said. According to Karen Zadoyan, the development of the capacities of the member organizations of the coalition currently is also important: the monitoring and evaluation skills and knowledge, the expertise of the coalition which does not yield, and in some places it goes beyond the state institutions as well as its international relations.
