FIDIC’s final online event of its 2024 programme is a webinar, organised by the FIDIC integrity management committee, will highlight and demonstrate the importance of undertaking anti-corruption activities at all levels of the construction and infrastructure industry. The webinar, Tackling corruption and rooting it out of the industry - An essential webinar for International Anti-Corruption Day, takes place on Monday 9 December 2024 at 12 noon CET and is the third in a series of three events that FIDIC has held on this crucial issue.

FIDIC and professional services partnership EY have teamed up once again to organise the event to coincide with the UN International Anti-Corruption Day to give updates on the collaborative work being undertaken by FIDIC and EY on this important issue for all those working in the construction sector. The webinar will offer attendees a range of helpful tips, approaches and strategies that companies and organisations can apply to combat the scourge of corruption.

Commenting on the event, Richard Stump, vice president of leading US architecture, engineering and consulting firm RS&H and chair of FIDIC’s integrity management committee, said: “This webinar is timely and critical and important. I’m not only excited about what we will be discussion, I think it is badly needed too. We need to get the word out there on this extremely critical issue.”

As well as discussing the current state of integrity globally and attitudes and views on corruption at different levels of businesses, the webinar will also examine the all-important issues of whistleblowing and ‘speak-up’ culture and look at how this can be developed across companies, organisations and governments.

The online event will be chaired by Richard Stump, vice president of leading US architecture, engineering and consulting firm RS&H and chair of FIDIC’s integrity management committee. The top line up of knowledgeable speakers includes Nigel Iyer, co-founder and director of anti-fraud consultancy B4 Investigate AB (Sweden), Bruce Wymond, founding director of the Global Infrastructure Anti-Corruption Centre (Australia), Jacqueline Gerrick, president and CEO of Whistleblowers of America (USA) and Cecilia Melzi, a partner at EY (Peru).
