University of Glasgow

The University of Glasgow, founded in 1451, is a prestigious and historic institution, renowned for its research-intensive environment and commitment to academic excellence. It boasts a vibrant, international community in one of Europe’s most dynamic cities. With its cutting-edge facilities, world-class faculty, and a strong network of global partnerships, the University of Glasgow consistently ranks among the top 100 universities worldwide. It is well-placed to enhance knowledge on integrity management and anti-corruption, leveraging its strong academic foundation in ethics and social responsibility, particularly through the Adam Smith Business School. It has a rich tradition of research in governance, ethical business practices, and public policy, supported by a faculty comprising experts in these fields.

Role in the project

University of Glasgow leads Work Package 4: Integrity Management, focusing on organisational aspects of ethics, integrity compliance and corruption. We start by benchmarking and taking stock of the field, including case studies as well as a broader regulatory mapping, including public, private and hybrid organisations. We merge this work with that conducted by our partners in Antwerp and LUISS who will lead the modelling of new integrity management systems for organisations in the three sectors of the economy. University of Glasgow also contributes to WP2 taking a social anthropology perspective on corruption.
