The Anti-Corruption Commission, in collaboration with Shincheonji Volunteers, prepared young people to become ethical and integrity-driven leaders during a one-day youth summit.

The summit aims to create awareness of corruption and ethics, educate young people about different forms of corruption, teach them how to avoid it, and inspire them to build a corruption-free country.

The discussion was also centred on the causes and effects of corruption and how to combat it.

Young people were warned against the danger of engaging in corrupt practices that risk damaging their reputations, facing legal consequences and losing career opportunities.

The Head of the Directorate of Public Education and Corruption Prevention, Marina Matundu, encouraged young people to embrace truth, fairness and responsibility.

"Integrity is one such virtue. It is the comfort that ensures that action says not only ourselves but a greater good, a bigger picture. This event is just not another programme. It is a call, right? A call to reject corruption, dishonesty, shortcuts, and instant gratification for us, the young people, to embrace." 

 Public Education and Corruption Officer Alexander Ngola urged young people to stop corruption by playing their part in society. 

Participants were urged to report any corrupt behaviours or practices.
