Joining the UNCAC Coalition and Catalyst 2030

No one fights corruption alone. To carry more weight, CERC chose in 2020 to join two global networks.

It became a full member of the UNCAC Coalition, which brings together more than 350 civil society organisations in over 100 countries to promote the ratification, implementation and monitoring of the United Nations Convention against Corruption – the first global instrument against corruption, organised crime and economic crime, including money laundering. As a member, CERC contributes to implementing the Convention in the DRC; this is why the Coalition asked it in 2021 to produce the civil society parallel report on the DRC.

The same year, CERC joined Catalyst 2030, a global movement of social entrepreneurs, NGOs, funders and other innovators working together to transform the systems that keep millions of people in poverty. At the current pace, the Sustainable Development Goals would not be reached before 2094 – 64 years after the UN deadline: Catalyst 2030 was created to respond to this emergency.

At national level, CERC also brought together LICOCO, ACAJ, COCOCULO and ODEP in 2021 to set up a coordination mechanism for anti-corruption work.
