“Transparency, accountability, and the rule of law are essential in the fight against corruption.”

In sync with the words of Sir Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, students of St. Joseph’s Sr. Sec. School observed International Anti-Corruption Day, based on this year’s theme, i.e., “UNCAC at 20: Uniting the World Against Corruption,” marking the UNCAC’s 20th anniversary.

Students were made aware that the 2023 International Anti-Corruption Day seeks to unite the world against corruption. At its core is the notion, that tackling this crime is the right and responsibility of everyone, and that only through cooperation and the involvement of people, can we overcome the negative impact of crime. Power Point Presentation, supported by teachers’ talk and discussions, added more depth to the observing of such a significant day. An oath on anti-corruption day was taken by the students of the Sr. Sec. Block.

The Coordinator imbibed values like righteousness, tolerance, and perseverance amongst the young generation, to ensure peace and harmony around the world. The Principal Monica Chawla quoted to sum up her thoughts, “On International Anti-Corruption Day, let us reaffirm our commitment to eradicating corruption and building a world where justice and integrity prevail.”
