objectives
- Provide water sector insight
- Assist CurbingCorruption in increasing transparency in water sector
- Expand sector engagement beyond water infrastructure to include water resources
scope
We work with CurbingCorruption co-authoring reports and generating products that support their research of the water sector, particularly of water as a resource. Services include: authorship, consulting, infographics, and graphic design.
”Laura Jean Palmer-Moloney and her colleagues at VTT are passionate about the vital role of water in making the planet a better, more sustainable place to live in.
They recognise how corruption in the water sector threatens everything about water management and water integrity, and have collaborated with me and my colleagues at CurbingCorruption on better identifying and addressing this threat.
The three projects that we have cooperated on to-date have been valuable and show how deep water-sector expertise is both valuable and vital in helping the corruption problems to be identified and addressed.

Here are some examples of our work with CurbingCorruption.
Sector-Based Action Against Corruption: A Guide for Organisations and Professionals (2024)
Mark Pyman and Paul Heywood, co-founders of Curbing Corruption, published a book demonstrating the SFRA approach to tackling corruption for organizations and professionals:
➡ Sector: where the knowledge and operational experience lies
➡ Focus: address specific and identifiable corruption issues
➡ Remediation: a two-track approach to link political feasibility to detailed measures
➡ Action: how to decide the most appropriate combinations by using various ‘lenses’
The book covers a wide variety of sectors and features a practical and results-oriented approach. Laura Jean Palmer-Moloney lead the water sector investigation, and working with visual designer Camille Babington, VTT created the Water Corruption Typology to add to the Curbing Corruption toolkit.
Whatever part of the water sector you may work in – whether watershed management, the ocean economy, water for energy or food or habitat or development; or more broadly in climate change and extreme weather roles – corruption can be one of the darkest problem areas.
Frequently rendered hard-to-address by political sensitivity, corruption issues can cripple the effective use of water for communities.
