dc.description.abstractThe brief provides recommendations on methods to counter the distortion of policy priorities induced by political corruption. Zimbabwe is ranked 157 out of 180 countries according to the 2017 Corruption Perception Index (CPSI). This policy brief defines corruption as the abuse of public office for private gain and extends the definition to include “grand corruption” or widespread political corruption. It specifically outlines how corruption causes social harm; the relationship between corruption and economic rights; the shrinking space of civil society organizations (CSOs) and the persecution of activists; and how corruption undermines public confidence and institutions.en
