More and more, the development community and multilateral organizations are promoting increased cooperation and collaboration in the fight against corruption.

Issues include stimulating partner country ownership, defining priorities in reform processes, dealing with security issues, managing limited absorption capacity for institutional reforms, and maximizing the role of the private sector.
