Cyprus Integrity Forum
The Cyprus Integrity Forum (CIF) was initiated in 2010, registered in the year 2011, and is today the leading institution in Cyprus for the fight against corruption and promotion of transparency. It is an independent, non-governmental, non-politically partisan, and non-profit organisation. CIF collaborates with various organisations in Cyprus, Europe, and the USA. We effectively raise public awareness in all layers of society for combating corruption in our everyday lives. We aim to enhance the content and quality of public and corporate governance in all forms of business and ensure that the State and all Governmental Bodies act and behave in a manner that promotes transparency and ethics in all respects.
CIF has already delivered substantial work to the Cypriot society by being the only organisation in Cyprus that has sensitised the public about corruption. Our initiatives support legal and regulatory reforms at the national level by promoting practical tools for individuals, organisations, and companies who want to fight corruption by being an external expert against corruption in Cyprus and raising transparency regarding specific events and situations.
CIF serves as the primary source of information for both the government and the broader public on corruption and reform issues in Cyprus.
CIF works with the Cypriot government and other organisations to reduce government officials’ discretion, build and strengthen institutions (institutional framework) to facilitate reform in areas where there is corruption, and promote good governance in key policy areas.
