This includes support to the African Parliamentarians' Network against Corruption (APNAC) for training parliamentarians and civil society on anti-corruption measures. By 2014, this project aims to: strengthen regional collaboration among parliamentarians; provide training to over nine hundred parliamentarians, parliamentary staff, and civil society representatives (including women's groups) leading to strengthened budget oversight capacities and accountability to citizens; and improve the ability of the selected African parliaments and civil society groups to fight corruption.
