  Why This Project?

Civil Society Anti-corruption Project, with the purpose of combating corruption in Nepal, aims to implement anti-corruption activities, to ensure that government bodies become aware, more accessible and responsive to the general people and the civil society. Hence, the CSACP focuses towards achieving the goal of "Improved contribution by Civil Society" with the support of Commission for the Investigation of Abuse of Authority (CIAA), Good Governance Clubs (GGCs), His Majesty Government Offices, Non-Government Organizations and the media, and this will help strengthen networking and sensitizing mechanism. Such system will help maintain decency and integrity of the government officials in promoting anti-corruption policies and laws.
The project supports this endeavor by providing opportunities to civil society for organizing and influencing state policy practices, so that basic service provisions to the people become more effective and efficient. Same like, service providers in future are encouraged to be accountable, transparent and credible. Hence, the project aspires to make government bodies more aware of their duties and responsibilities by lobbying and advocating against corruption through mobilizing civil society. Most importantly, this project aims at developing "zero tolerance" in civil society against corruption and other social absurdities. CSACP at the same time hopes to promote the culture of asking prickly questions by developing "Why Culture" or the culture of raising queries against irregularity in any form. "Why Culture", the first of its kind in the country has to some extent developed the culture among the public to grill the authorities for irregularities and other sorts of anomalies.
