During the XIX Ibero-American Summit that took place in Estoril, Portugal, Heads of State and Government of Ibero-America approved a special communiqué on the fight against corruption where they express a priority in “backing the work of The Mechanism for Follow-Up on the Implementation of the Inter-American Convention against Corruption (MESICIC) of the Organization of American States (OEA), which represents a valuable effort of regional collaboration to prevent and fight the phenomenon of corruption.”
As part of the communiqué, the 22 Ibero-American leaders recognized that corruption “continues to be a menace to social cohesion, making it indispensable to increase cooperation among the countries of the Ibero-American community to strengthen national, regional, and international efforts, to secure the efficiency of methods and actions for preventing, sanctioning and eradicating acts of corruption.”
The Mechanism for Follow-Up on the Implementation of the Inter-American Convention against Corruption (MESICIC) is an inter-governmental instrument established to support the States Parties in the implementation of the provisions of the Convention through a process of reciprocal evaluation, based on conditions of equality among the states.
