Corruption is widespread in Bangladesh, affecting all levels of society. Reforming institutions that enable corrupt practices through political influence, weak enforcement of laws, and close ties between bureaucrats and politicians is essential. TIB conducts research to understand the nature and extent of corruption, raise awareness, and promote transparent and accountable governance. TIB's research objectives align with its vision and mission, including generating knowledge, assessing corruption, driving policy discussions, educating the public, providing recommendations, and promoting positive change in relevant sectors and institutions.
