Megaron Athens International Conference Centre17:30 – 19:30 Workshop Session 1Dimitris Mitropoulos Hall / L. 017:30 – 19:30 Workshop 1.1Global Standards in Political Finance: Transparency and AccountabilityStream 1: Peace & SecurityCoordinator:Marcin WaleckiSenior Advisor for Political Finance, International Foundation for Electoral SystemsDifferent basic guidelines and rules have recently been advocated by a number of internationalgovernmental and non-governmental anti-corruption organizations. Many of the proposals, coming fromorgans of the Organization of American States (OAS), the Council of Europe (CoE), the World Bank,African Union, ADB-OECD Anti-Corruption Initiative for Asia and the Pacific, and Transparency International,are an indication in which direction the future anti-corruption political finance regulationsare moving. Not surprisingly, all of the above organizations emphasize strategies based on publicdisclosure and most address the question of monitoring. The proposed workshop will assemble a groupof researchers, experts, anti-corruption activists, and practitioners in the field of political finance to debateand hopefully to agree on a set of global standards that clarify and define UNCAC article 7 (3)both within the context of the UN Convention Against Corruption and the emerging set of global bestpractices.The Workshop will seek to galvanize the debate and identify a set of best practices for globalstandards. The discussion will start with a brief presentation of papers justifying a few basic rules onpolitical financing and existing standards. Lessons learned, best practices and case studies from severalcountries will be highlighted.Moderator: Marcin Walecki, Senior Advisor for Political Finance, International Foundation for Electoral SystemsRapporteur: Delia Ferreira, CEMA and ESEADE University, Buenos AiresPanellists: Abdul-Monem Al-Mashat, Dean Faculty of Economics and Political Science, Future UniversityVaruzhan Hoktanyan, Vice Chair, Transparency International Anti-corruption Center ArmeniaJob Ogonda, Executive Director Transparency International KenyaBruno Speck, Senior Advisor for Latin America, Transparency International17:30 – 19:30 Workshop 1.2MC 3.2 / L. -1Lessons Learned in the Implementation of the “Guatemala Declarationfor a Region Free of Corruption”Stream 1: Peace & SecurityCoordinator:Alejandro Urizar, Director, Acción CiudadanaDuring the inauguration of the 12th International Anti-Corruption Conference, the presidents ofCentral America, Belize, Panama and Dominican Republic, signed the “Guatemala Declaration for aRegion Free of Corruption” with the objective of harmonizing laws and regional politics against corruptionby the year 2010.
