this respect, meetings are to take place with representatives from
oversight bodies responsible for preventing, detecting and punishing
corruption in Kingstown on April 22-24, 2014. The purpose of these
meetings is to review, on hand, the manner in which the
Inter-American Convention against Corruption is being implemented in In addition, meetings with civil society will also
take place, as well as with the private sector, professional
associations and academics, in order to address the topics that are
currently being reviewed in the Fourth Round of this Mechanism. The MESICIC is a cooperation mechanism between
States, with the participation of civil society organizations,
established within the framework of the OAS, in which the
legal/institutional framework of each country is reviewed for
suitability with the Inter-American Convention against Corruption as
well as the objective results achieved therein. The incorporation of
on-site visits as a stage and integral part of the MESICIC
represents an innovative and pioneering initiative of the OAS,
which, with the support of the Technical Secretariat, has further
strengthened this review process. For more information, please
