UNICEF Policy on Anti-Fraud and Corruption

About

The purpose of UNICEF’s Policy on Anti-Fraud and Corruption is to outline the organization’s zero tolerance for inaction against fraud and corruption (as defined in this Policy). It establishes UNICEF’s commitment, procedures and responsibilities for the prevention, detection and response to allegations of fraud and corruption across all of UNICEF’s programmes and operations.

This Policy reaffirms UNICEF’s anti-fraud and corruption commitment, sets expectations of tone and emphasizes the critical role of risk management and mitigation. It further defines key roles and responsibilities, including the establishment of the role of the Anti-Fraud Officer (AFO), to ensure the effective implementation of this policy.
