The Anti-Corruption Action Plan for Asia and the Pacific is the Initiative's main instrument. It defines the participating countries' objectives in building sustainable legal and institutional frameworks to fight corruption and, in its Implementation Plan, outlines the mechanisms to achieve these objectives.
The Action Plan was agreed upon at the 3rd annual ADB/OECD Anti-Corruption Conference for Asia-Pacific, held in December 2000. Today, 27 countries and economies of the region have formally endorsed the Action Plan and committed to its goals.
The Action Plan's implementation mechanisms, laid down in the Implementation Plan, include policy dialogue and capacity development, the exchange of information and experience, and strengthening of ties and cooperation between the members and with other relevant partners. The Implementation Plan also foresees that the Initiative's member countries define and implement reform projects on a regular basis to address priorities for reform in the fight against corruption.
The Initiative's work is guided by the Steering Group, consisting of representatives of the Initiative's member countries, the Advisory Group and the Initiative's Secretariat. The Steering Group holds Steering Group meetings twice a year to review progress in implementing the Action Plan, to exchange experience in the member countries' reform efforts and to agree upon the work and strategy of the Initiative.
