Botswana's Corruption Forecast

Forecasted trend:
Stationary
Côte d'Ivoire has started from the very bottom due to a civil conflict and therefore only improved in trends like reduction of administrative burden, judicial independence, or e-citizens. Overall resistance to corruption remains very low, however, with poor transparency, use of the judiciary for political means and particularistic allocation of public resources.
See Botswana's profile on the Index of Public Integrity.

Angola's Corruption Forecast

Forecasted trend:
Stationary
Burundi has very poor human development and control of corruption. It has the lowest access to Internet on the continent, resulting in a population largely unable to defend itself from abuse and claim access to basic rights. Well below its peers on judicial independence, (despite significant progress in the past 12 years) and freedom of the press, and with no fiscal transparency, it shows no signs of a takeoff on good governance any time soon.
