On 6-7 October 2016, representatives of the National Agency on Corruption Prevention (NACP) met with Council of Europe experts to discuss good practices in developing key performance indicators and progress benchmarks for corruption prevention bodies. The meeting represents the first step of the Council of Europe’s support to the NACP in developing mechanisms to assess progress in achieving its main tasks.

During the meeting, the two sides discussed best practices concerning the assessment of the work of preventive bodies, the main statistical indicators of the NACP activity, the assessment of the efficiency of the NACP vis-a-vis the overall corruption situation in Ukraine, and possible performance indicators and progress benchmarks which can be used for evaluation of the NACP’s effectiveness. The process that the NACP is undertaking with Council of Europe support under the Joint CoE/EU Eastern Partnership Programmatic Cooperation Framework Project “Fight against Corruption in Ukraine” is innovative, as there are very limited similar comparative models.
