2007 Assessment

This locally researched and peer-reviewed report includes:

Integrity Indicators Scorecard: Scores, scoring criteria, commentary, references, and peer review perspectives for 207 Integrity Indicators developed specifically to examine Liberian governance issues.

The Liberia Local Governance Toolkit assesses the existence, effectiveness, and citizen access to key anti-corruption mechanisms at the county level in Liberia. The Toolkit is an entry point for understanding the anti-corruption and good governance safeguards in place in each county in Liberia— what's working, what's not, and what can be improved.

Bong county faces significant challenges with judicial accountability, public access to information, and transparency in the sub-national budget and public procurement process. As in other Liberian counties, whistle blower protections and anti-corruption laws are virtually non-existent. Civil society, media, and internal auditing are bright spots.
