Integrity Education Network (IEN) is the world’s largest and fastest growing network of educators and universities committed to teaching integrity. It has grown to 307 universities and integrity-focused NGOs in over 60 countries in early 2012; 213 in Europe and Central Asia, 109 in Indonesia, 45 in China, and 13 in the Arab World. Our individual scholars have grown to 980; 400 in China; 218 in Indonesia; 30 in Arab World and 350 ECA and Africa. Over 25,000 students receive integrity education annually as a direct result of network activities.

Integrity is still a contested idea until now. However, we define organisational integrity as the set of characteristics that improves trustworthiness to stakeholders. In our approach, institutionalizing integrity requires the alignment of Accountability, “Enabling stakeholders to check that we do what we say we do”; Corruption control, “Doing it without corruption”; Competence, “Doing it well”; and Ethicality, “Doing it with honour”.
