Summary:
- As a forum for economic cooperation, the G20 is perfectly positioned to improve international anti-corruption efforts.
- Very few international forums engage civil society meaningfully in combating corruption, missing out on the benefits that come from working with such well-informed actors.
- South Africa, although battling corruption, is a good example of how civil society can aid anti-corruption efforts, something that carried through to its approach to anti-corruption during its G20 presidency in 2025.
- Civil society actors should be included in peer learning and knowledge exchanges to strengthen anti-corruption architecture at national and international levels.
