Supporting Citizens Against Corruption

 

Our Vision

Citizens succeed in making their government free of corruption

 


Our Mission

Partnership for Transparency Fund mobilizes expertise and resources to provide advice and small grants to civil society organizations to engage citizens in actions to remove corruption in the public sector.  PTF strives to support innovative approaches, learn from its work and share the knowledge gained.

The basic premise for creating PTF is that the civil society has an important role to play in the development of anti-corruption and good governance programs, and it can play this role more effectively if it is independent, financially, from government or direct bilateral or multilateral funding.
