Governance & Anti-Corruption

A well-functioning public sector that delivers quality public services consistent with citizen preferences and fosters private, market-led growth, while managing its fiscal resources in a prudent manner is critical to the World Bank’s mission to alleviate poverty and help achieve the Millenium Development Goals (MDGs).

The Public Sector Governance Program (PSGP) offers guidance and lessons from practices that promote responsive, responsible, and accountable public governance in developing countries via multiyear learning and country-focused programs that support World Bank operations.  

The learning program is organized into five sub-programs:
