An intergenerational dialogue on anti-corruption and integrity took place at the United Nations Office in Vienna on October 30, gathering experts from academia, investigative journalism, sports, youth engagement, and previous winners of the Emir of Qatar’s Anti-Corruption Excellence (ACE) Award.
Organised by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) and the Rule of Law and Anti-Corruption Centre (ROLACC) of Qatar, the session focused on strategies to strengthen transparency, ethical leadership, and accountability systems globally.
During the forum, participants discussed lessons learnt from anti-corruption efforts across different regions and explored ways to enhance collaboration between youth, governments, and international institutions.
The dialogue also included the planning of a global mentorship programme aimed at equipping young people with the tools to lead with integrity.
Speaking at the dialogue, a Ghanaian advocate and member of the UNODC YouthLED Integrity Advisory Board, Bright Ofori, represented Ghana and shared insights from his work through The Bright Future Alliance (TBFA), a civil society organisation dedicated to advancing anti-corruption efforts across Ghana, Africa, and beyond.
His contributions to the discussions reflected his growing profile as a young leader in integrity and governance on the global stage.
While in Austria, Bright met with Ghana’s Ambassador to Austria and Permanent Representative to the United Nations in Vienna, Matilda Aku Alomatu Osei-Agyeman, where they discussed Ghana’s increasing role in global governance and ongoing youth engagement initiatives.
The dialogue underscores the importance of youth participation in shaping transparent, accountable leadership worldwide, with emerging leaders like Bright Ofori playing an active role in international conversations on integrity and ethical governance.
