Indicator challenges we confront
• Linked, but not inseparable: – Measuring changes in corruption levels– Evaluating whether anti-corruption efforts are successful
• Progress on measuring bribery and financial fraud, but two overall indicator problems remaining:– How to measure other types of corruption (patronage, conflict
of interest, abuse of power, etc.)– How to present a measure of overall corruption levels in a
country, region, sector, or organisation not biased towardsmeasurable types of corruption, and can show trajectories ofchange

In many areas, we have the tools. We need regular, systematic, household-level data collection
• Perceptions – institutional integrity scores (TI GCB)
• Experiences – victimization (UNODC)
• Current NGO polls allow us to diagnose corruption, advocacy
• Household level data would let us study what worksand why (e.g. effects of integrity initiative on healthoutcomes)

National statistics offices – integrity warriors?
• Knowledge (data) is power!
• Corruption is a sensitive subject
• Civil society and donors may distrust NSOs as “agents of the state” unless assurances are provided regarding non-interference in corruption statistics
