Corruption is a complex social, political and economic phenomenon that affects all countries. Corruption undermines democratic institutions, slows economic development and contributes to political instability.

On 31 October 2003, the General Assembly adopted the United Nation Convention against corruption. The Assembly also designated 9 December as International Anti-Corruption Day to raise public awareness for Anti-Corruption.
