Strategic Plan 

Strategic Plan 2009-2013

Below is a the forward as contained in the Strategic Plan document for the Commission.

Forward
The Anti-Corruption Commission is the lead institution in Zambia’s anti-corruption drive. The Institution established in 1982 is charged with the responsibility to discharge a broad anti-corruption mandate of investigation and prosecution, prevention and public education.

The Commission which is the link between the Directorate and the people of Zambia has been monitoring the activities and operational direction of the institution through regular scheduled meetings.

The launch of 2009 – 2013 Strategic Plan marks a fundamental milestone in our term of office. The development of this plan was guided by a comprehensive analysis of the Commission’s operating environment and with full participation of the Commission. The Commission also disseminated the contents of the plan in its draft form to a wide range of external stakeholders who offered critical input which formed this final product.

In developing the Plan the Commission endeavoured to place equal emphasis on all aspects of its mandate and took recognition of its past experiences in the fight against corruption and the need to infuse new strategies and structures needed to meet its objectives. The Plan has also in as much as possible taken on board other necessary actors in the fight against corruption.

The Commission shall in the execution of the plan anchor its operations on its core values and principles of: Integrity; excellence; accountability; respect; confidentiality; collaboration; impartiality; loyalty; responsibility; and citizenship.

In conclusion, I wish to invite all Zambians and all other interested parties to join the Commission in fighting and eradicating corruption from our society and body politic, for together we shall certainly win the war against the scourge.
