TIZ har ansökt om finansiering från Sida på 17 589 000 SEK för att utföra programmet Koalition mot korruption i Zimbabwe under perioden 2015 - 2018. Detta program kommer särskilt rikta in sig på de handelscentrum som innefattar Harare, Chitungwiza, Mutare, Bulawayo och Chinhoyi, vilka är de största städerna i Zimbabwe. Det är i olika centrum för handel som korrupta aktiviteter äger rum på grund av individers missbruk att offentliga resurser för egen vinning, och detta är därmed grunden för urvalet i detta program. TIZ planerar att genomföra ett program som kommer att bidra till "minskning av korruption i Zimbabwe". De specifika målen för programmet är följande: I. Stärka effektiviteten bland antikorruptionskedjans aktörer och policyramverk för att göra värdekedjan effektiv i att minska korruptionen genom forskning- och kapacitetsuppbyggnadsinitiativ av statliga och icke-statliga aktörer. II. Stärka medborgarnas egenmakt och möjlighet att kräva öppenhet, ansvarsskyldighet och integritet. III. Skydda svaga medlemmar i samhället från bördan av korruption genom att ge juridisk hjälp och rådgivning till offer för korruption. Följande är de definierade utfallen för detta program: Utfall 1: Förbättrad demonstration av politisk vilja att ta itu med korruption Utfall 2: Förbättrad kapacitet och deltagande av intressanter i anti-korruption Utfall 3: Förbättrad öppenhet, ansvarsskyldighet och integritet i offentlig och privat sektor Utfall 4: Ökad medvetenhet och förkastande av korruption av landets medborgare. TIZ har identifierat vissa aktörer som ska bilda koalitioner för ett effektivt genomförande av sin korruptionsbekämpningsenhet. Dessa aktörer inkluderar den verkställande makten, parlamentet, NPA, medborgarna, CBOs, CSO, fängelsekåren, polisen, ZACC, Media, AG-kontoret, privata sektorn och domarkårens kommission. Dessa aktörer har identifierats att ha betydande inflytande och betydelse i antikorruptionsvärdekedjan. I svar på den svaga rättstaten, kommer TIZ i detta program att fokusera på att stärka policys kring korruption, samt polisen, ZACC, rättsväsendet och revisorgenerales möjligheter att upptäcka och bekämpa korruption. TIZ skall organisera och stärka intressenter/aktörer som valts ut i värdekedjan för att bekämpa korruption i stället för att anpassa sig till korruptionstendenser. TIZ kommer att utbilda medborgarna och ge dem möjlighet att kräva öppenhet, ansvarsskyldighet och integritet. Utöver detta kommer TIZ även fokusera på de institutionella politiska ramverk, funktioner och aktörer som har att göra med "resursförbannelsen" för att minska korruptionen. CARC-programmet kommer att ta ett helhetsgrepp på kapacitetsuppbyggnad av aktörer och policyramverk för att stärka anti-korruptionsvärdekedjan funktion att minska korruption. Det är Sidas bedömning att programmets fokus är lovvärt och är relevant när det gäller situationen i landet.
The TIZ programmes aims at fighting corruption and related vices in both private and the public sector through networks of integrity
Objectives
The overall objective of CARC is to contribute to the reduction of corruption in Zimbabwe and promote accountable governance that responds equally and effectively to the needs of women and men. The specific objectives are:I. To strengthen the effectiveness of the anti-corruption value chain actors through enhancing the capacity of – women and men in this chain to reject corruption and demand accountability, transparency and integrity. II. To increase protection of disadvantaged and vulnerable women and men from the brunt of corruption by providing legal assistance and advice to victims of corruption. In order to fully achieve these objectives the project will target the centres of commerce which include Harare, Chitungwiza, Mutare, Bulawayo and Chinhoyi which are dominantly the major towns in Zimbabwe. It is in the centres of commerce where rampant corrupt activities are taking place due to individual/s abuse of public resources for the own gain hence their selection.

Uppnådda resultat
The Embassy has assessed the results achievement for year three and also for the duration of the project:  Through a mix of activities that include trainings, policy dialogues, legal research TI Z achieved the following results in year 3:  - TI Z conducted policy dialogues focused on strengthening transparency and accountability in public service delivery by local authorities, specifically in relation to urban housing in Harare and the Extended Public Workshops Programme in Bulawayo. Through its Advice and Legal Advice Centre (ALAC), TI Z reported a 10% increase in clients reporting cases of corruption tied to housing schemes and land corruption.  This led to advocacy with Local Government especially in Mutare on how discrepancies can be addressed. TI Z further went on to partner with local radio stations in publicizing anti-corruption issues.  - TI Z continued to advocate for the development of a National Anti-Corruption Strategy (NACS) in Zimbabwe. Under Key Result Area 4 TI Z undertook an exploratory study on Corruption and Cultural Dynamics in Zimbabwe. The study was meant to inform dialogue on the NACS. Soon after launching the study, TI Z and Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (ZACC) agreed on working together in the development of NACS. To that effect a taskforce comprising of TI Z and ZACC staff was established. The Task-force was tasked with leading the preparatory work for the NACS consultative workshops. It must be noted however that ZACC remains relatively weak and at present moment is almost non-functional.   - Several community meetings, named 'empowerment circles' were conducted with an aim of raising awareness amongst the citizens on anti-corruption issues as well as creating a platform to redress challenges affecting communities. Whilst community meetings target both males and females, empowerment circles focused on women. TI Z used empowerment circles as a vehicle to encourage women to be involved in the fight against corruption. TI Z had noted that women are more comfortable talking about corruption in spaces where men are not present. A total of 756 people (401 males and 355 females) were reached in year three.  The Embassy has assessed that these have led to consolidated achievements for the past three years are as follows: Examples of reach: In terms of numbers TI Z reached 1 953 people through community meetings, 3694 people through 90 mobile clinics, 1130 people received support through the Legal Advice Centre in Mutare and Bulawayo, and 3 Annual State of Corruption reports where documented. Through social media platforms TI Z reached more than 30,000 people as it strengthened its footprint.  A total reach of 4556 directly (2824 males and 1732 females) +20 000 indirectly was made by TI Z.  - It can be noted that at the start of the support Zimbabwe scored 21 out of 100 in the corruption perception index; this is currently at 22 out of 100 demonstrating that some small change shave been made in changing this perception. - Furthermore, TI Z also became better recognised and even signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Parliament. TI Z was engaged in Bill amendments at Parliament and 5 bills where passed to pave way for greater transparency by Government in for example procurement and governance of public entities.  - TI Z also contributed to strengthening this Justice Sector by lobbying for specialised anti-corruption courts, training prosecutors on financial crimes and investigation. This is a way of ensuring transparency in public institutions.  - A strong component of the programme was on working with community structures and increasing their knowledge on corruption and establishing community accountability structures. More than 73% of community based activists indicated that they are better informed on anti-corruption
