Highlighting the role of collaboration between activists and academics, RESPOND bridges action and prevention, creating tools for activists & citizens to fight corruption and build trust by uniting individual, ethical, and societal perspectives. #AdvancesInAntiCorruption

The speakers talked about how donations and lobbying can distort political decision making, how ethics can be impacted by corruption and the challenges of "measuring" corruption by referring to the Global Corruption Observatory’s experience. #AdvancesInAntiCorruption

UNIBO's Alice Fubini opens the third panel by recalling the goals and research areas of RESPOND, which brings together academics and practitioners, and introduces the partners: Marcia Grimes from Gothenburg University, Misi Fazekas from Central European University and
Elisa Orlando from Libera #AdvancesInAntiCorruption

We need to focus on how these efforts reshape relationships between grassroots movements and institutional actors, as local actions are becoming more important in the fight against corruption #AdvancesInAntiCorruption

BIT-ACT provided many answers, but it also raised new questions that will be addressed in the next five years through the RESPOND project, which aims to deepen understanding and further explore the impact of digital tools in combating corruption. #AdvancesInAntiCorruption

These technologies are complex and multifaceted designed to empower communities and strengthen grassroots efforts in the fight against corruption, Alice Mattoni, coordinator of the BIT-ACT project, explains. #AdvancesInAntiCorruption

The BIT-ACT initiative focuses on bottom-up techniques to combating political corruption through the use of digital technologies and media. It is a collaborative endeavor that challenges the idea that anti-corruption instruments are simple, one-dimensional answers. #AdvancesInAntiCorruption
