In this regard, from April 16 to 18, 2013,
For this reason,
In this Fifth Round, which is to begin shortly, the
MESICIC will review, among others, the progress made by
the States Parties with respect to systems of government
hiring, procurement of goods and services, and
protecting those who, in good faith, report acts of
corruption. Implementation of other provisions of the
Inter-American Convention against Corruption will
also be reviewed.
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
review process represents an innovative and pioneering
initiative in the context of the OAS, especially for a
peer review mechanism and the importance of the issues
it addresses.

Portal of the Americas. |
