Why doesn’t the eradication of global mega-corrupt feature prominently on the list of SDGs?
Is it an oversight or a deliberate act? Throughout the world corruption is the number one cause of underdevelopment and the number one enemy of economic justice. It is the root of all the evils that undermine infrastructural development, health, education, innovation, governance, social justice, rule of law and most importantly universal values such as truth. This is how institutions are weakened. The Panama papers and the West Africa leaks offer ample evidence about the profundity of this rot, and yet it is obscured in the SDGs instead of being among the main issues. I am just wondering why that is.....What do you say?
