About Us

Spotlight on Corruption shines a light on the UK’s role in corruption at home and abroad.

We want to see a society with strong, transparent and accountable institutions which ensure corruption is not tolerated and democracy flourishes both in the UK and globally.

To achieve this we highlight corruption and the harm it causes, and campaign to improve the UK’s legal systems and enforcement of the law.

How we Achieve this;

• We track the implementation and enforcement of the UK’s anti-corruption laws to ensure that they are deterring and preventing corruption.
• We undertake detailed, evidence-based and impactful research on the implementation and enforcement of the UK’s anti-corruption laws, looking for ways in which they can be improved.
• We investigate and publicise cases of corruption where there are strong grounds for supposing that the UK’s anti-corruption laws have been broken.
• We explore the role that strategic litigation can play in improving anti-corruption enforcement outcomes.
