CurbingCorruption.com
The website's own presentation states: "CurbingCorruption was founded in 2018 by Mark Pyman. From his experience of working in three of the toughest environments for corruption – as the Programme Director for Transparency International in tackling corruption in the military and Defence Ministries worldwide; in Afghanistan, as one of the three international Anti-Corruption Commissioners; and as the Chief financial Officer for large international companies in endemically corrupt countries – he came to believe that much more progress against corruption is possible."[2]
