Coalition for Ethical Operations

Mission

Promote ethical business and reduce bribery and corruption across Sub-Saharan Africa

Goals

The Coalition for Ethical Operations was established by a consortium of multinational companies to foster ethical business conduct and mitigate bribery and corruption across Sub-Saharan Africa.

The initiative's main objectives were to:

  • Share best practices to champion ethical conduct and prevent corruption;
  • Advocate for training initiatives for small and medium enterprise suppliers to promote ethical behavior and counter corruption;
  • Engage in voluntary and occasional Collective Actions and collaborations.

Stakeholders

Membership was open to all businesses that have operations in Sub-Saharan Africa and that commit themselves to ethical business and anti-corruption practices by signing the initiative's pledge.

This endeavor was supported by voluntary contributions provided by the signatories of the Coalition.
