During the event, the Agency’s representative explained the provisions of the country’s anti-corruption legislation and state programmes, methods for identifying and preventing corruption-related factors, ways to raise public awareness of the importance of combating this negative phenomenon, and other relevant issues.
It was emphasized that corruption risks are not limited to the improper use of public funds or bribery. They may also take the form of abuse of official authority, conflicts of interest, the use of official powers for personal gain, nepotism, and other unlawful activities.
The meeting also addressed the impact of corruption on public security. It was noted that the weakening of the public administration and state oversight systems as a result of corrupt practices may create conditions for other legal violations and social threats to emerge.

Preventing corruption, complying with the law, and improving legal awareness are essential factors in strengthening stability and security and ensuring the sustainable development of society.
