E-Governance and Its Role in Reducing Corruption

Abstract

This paper explores the role of governance and transparency in combating administrative
corruption, and identifies key strategies and measures necessary to mitigate this phenomenon.
The study employs a descriptive methodology, reviewing existing literature on governance,
transparency, and corruption. Governance plays an essential role in fostering organizational
integrity and transparency. It provides a structural framework that enables organizations to
achieve their goals and strategies, while simultaneously playing a crucial part in combating
corruption. Governance ensures transparency in all organizational practices. In contrast,
transparency fosters employee confidence by enforcing strict oversight within organizations. It
promotes the optimal use of both human and material resources, leading to improved
performance and greater efficiency. This paper also offers several recommendations to strengthen
the role of governance and transparency in combating corruption, particularly the implementation
of robust anti-corruption laws, raising public awareness, and encouraging a sense of civic
responsibility. Combating corruption is a collective responsibility.
