Preventing State Capture and Corruption

State Capture is a political phenomenon that has derailed several promising transitions to democracy. It describes the establishment of oligarchic regimes behind the scenes of democracy.

NSI is working with anti-corruption coalition based at GIBS to produce practical research to support government and civil society organisations’ efforts against state capture and corruption. Ivor Chipkin, NSI’s director, will lead the research team.
