“Crime, corruption, and bribery are major obstacles to sustainable development in Pakistan,” said Dr. Mansoor uz Zafar Dawood, Vice Chancellor of ILMA University. “They undermine economic growth, erode public trust, and perpetuate inequality. This workshop is an important step in raising awareness of these issues and developing solutions to address them.”
The workshop covered a range of topics, including the definition and scope of crime, corruption, and bribery; their impact on Pakistan’s economy and society; and strategies for prevention and detection. Participants also discussed the role of civil society, the media, and the private sector in promoting peace, justice, and strong institutions.
The workshop was a valuable opportunity for participants to learn from each other and share ideas on how to address crime, corruption, and bribery in Pakistan. It is hoped that the workshop will contribute to the development of effective strategies to promote SDG 16 and build a more peaceful and just society for all.
