The project aims at encouraging the adoption of voluntary anti-corruption and compliance standards and fostering a culture of integrity in business in Bulgaria.

The initiative will target the development and promotion of high-quality sectoral integrity standards in the key sectors of Energy, Industry and Healthcare, ensure pioneers to adopt and distribute them through their supply chains, and establish a better understanding of the need for business integrity in Bulgaria.

The proposed set of activities includes a participatory approach that includes all relevant stakeholders.

• Transparency International will develop the sectoral integrity standards and ensure their endorsement by key business associations.
• The project will map the targeted sectors and secure buy-in from at least three businesses that possess the potential to become pioneers of successful change.
• TI will work with them to make sure the standards are adapted to their needs, and will engage actively in the development of a model for the further promotion of the same principles and procedures through the pioneers’ supply change.
• Finally, the project will advocate the importance of the topic towards relevant institutions and provoke a more targeted dialogue with them.
