Transparency International’s Defence and Security Programme is partnering with the African Leadership Centre and Africa Research Group at King’s College London for a panel discussion on how corruption undermines security governance across Africa. Coinciding with the launch of TI’s Government Defence Anti-Corruption Index, the event aims to examine the diverse drivers of corruption on the continent and their role in derailing security reform in Uganda and Kenya.

A wine reception will follow the event.

The event will feature:

• Dr Alex Vines, Chatham House, Africa Programme Head (Chair)
• Dylan Hendrickson, Senior Fellow Department of War Studies, King’s College London
• Gladwell Otieno, Executive Director of the Africa Centre for Open Governance (AfriCOG)

• Hiruy Gossaye, Project Officer, Conflict and Insecurity Team, Transparency International

Due to the popularity of the event, seats will be given on a first-come, first-served basis.
