U4 Anti-corruption Resource Centre 2022-2026 The grant agreement covers support to the U4 Anti-corruption Resource Centre for the period 2022-2026. Climate change is one of the thematic areas U4 focusses on in the agreement.

The Project's expected effects on society (Impact) are contained in the following Strategic Goals, as defined in U4's Strategy 2022-2026.
1) Greater impact on the ground.
2) A coherent, global approach to anti-corruption.
3) Addressing the complexities of corruption head-on.
4) Pushing anti-corruption up the agenda.

For each strategic goal, an objective has been defined (in U4's Action Plan 2022-2026) as follows:

Strategic goal 1 (greater impact on the ground):
Objective 1: U4 will shift even further towards supporting local practice, strengthening our partners' work, and achieving greater impact 'on the ground'.

Strategic goal 2 (develop a coherent, global approach to anti-corruption):
Objective 2: Offer strategic advice, support and evidence to strengthen the coordination and development of joint positions among our U4 partners in their anti-corruption responses and in international policymaking; and to help them identify common ground and possible collaboration with the 'not-so-likeminded' where strategic interests coincide - such as corruption that undermines responses to climate change.

Strategic goal 3 (addressing the complexities of corruption):
Objective 3: Solving a myriad of connected corruption-related challenges across the globe and in different sectors, including in places and spaces conventionally seen as distant from the problem of large-scale corruption.

Strategic goal 4 (pushing anti-corruption higher up the agenda in our partners' home countries):
Objective 4: Making the case with evidence that anti-corruption is a key driver for change in U4 partner countries, demonstrating that corruption is related to a wide range of local, regional and global challenges, and that tackling corruption requires a transitional and cross-government effort.
