It's critical that instructors reconsider evaluation and reward practices. They must be in line with practical competencies. By doing this, we enable our students to succeed in school and in life and to have their abilities recognised and acknowledged. Let's together investigate novel techniques.

Hi everyone! I am an English Teacher from Pakistan.
It's not my first time learning online, I have done a lot of online courses using FutureLearn. Online education allows for flexibility. Self-motivation is one of the difficulties. I'm eager to learn more on this platform, FutureLearn and talk with you all.

Sincere gratitude is extended to you for helping to make this training a reality. Your innovative ideas gave anti-corruption campaigns a new perspective, and your knowledge-sharing has been precious to us. Your participation and thoughts, fellow students, have considerably...

This course gives a novel viewpoint on efforts to combat corruption, and Pakistan can benefit much from it:
Sectors of Focus: Give sector-specific projects involving influential parties a priority.
Potential Effects: Place a focus on workable, highly effective techniques in settings with a poor rule of law.
Use Horizontal Relations as leverage:...

Pakistan can learn important lessons about anti-corruption tactics from this study:
Regulatory Focus: Prioritize anti-corruption initiatives at the sectoral level where corruption affects policies and services for development and where it is possible to identify actors with enforcement capacity.
Impact and Viability: Choose modest, doable, and...

Pakistan can gain insight into how important it is to utilize anti-corruption initiatives in order to have a strong legal system. By successfully eliminating corruption, the nation can establish the groundwork for a judicial system that is more just and equitable, ultimately promoting a setting where the rule of law prevails.

Pakistan can learn from this case study of the very corrupt artisanal oil refining industry in the Niger Delta. A strategy that involves minimizing the immediate harm caused by corruption and gradually moving toward alternate livelihoods and energy sources can offer a way out of high-corruption sectors when conventional anti-corruption methods are not...
-
Pakistan can take inspiration from this strategy when dealing with pervasive, deeply ingrained corruption that defies conventional enforcement techniques. Strategies for mitigation and gradual change may be more effective when corruption is unabating, particularly in industries like extractives. Particularly for vulnerable areas affected by its effects,...

In terms of encouraging doctor attendance in rural areas, Pakistan can learn a lot from this study done in Bangladesh. The study emphasizes how crucial it is to comprehend the preferences of healthcare professionals and design policy initiatives that specifically cater to their need. Doctors in Bangladesh showed a significant preference for elements including...
-
Pakistan can benefit from the PCI anticorruption strategy's emphasis on establishing efficient horizontal inspections. Pakistan can create incentives to promote rule-following conduct by distinguishing between individuals who breach the law for irrational gain and those who are compelled to do so by a corrupt environment. This gradual approach can increase the...
-
Enhancing horizontal monitoring is beneficial in preventing corruption in climate infrastructure projects, according to a case study from Bangladesh. Similar approaches might be used in Pakistan to guarantee openness and accountability in projects relating to the environment, creating a win-win situation for all parties concerned.

In some situations, increasing horizontal supervision across sector actors in Pakistan may be a workable strategy to fight corruption.

The first week was a great chance to learn. Eagerly looking forward to the second week. Let's proceed!

Riaz Hussain made a comment
The first week provided a fantastic opportunity to study and learn lessons for Pakistan. Eagerly for the second week in which we will examine three anti-corruption tactics, which will be influenced by the Power, Capabilities, and Interests (PCI) framework. These tactics include "enhancing horizontal checks" with a case study on climate change adaptation...

The course underscores the necessity of taking into account feasibility and developmental impact, especially in a country where the rule of law is frequently inadequate, and emphasizes the significance of comprehending various forms of corruption and their societal impacts. It explains the ideas of social norms and corruption equilibria while providing complex...
-
Selective rule-following is frequent in Pakistan's environment, as it is in many other developing countries, leading to a scenario of rule by law rather than actual rule of law. Success in anti-corruption initiatives results from individuals taking on the role of horizontally imposing rules on those who have the authority, capability, and willingness to do so....
-
Pakistan's anti-corruption campaigns have frequently fallen short due to structural issues, a lack of political will, and inadequate enforcement.
-
While acknowledging the significant impact of power, capability, and interests on the dynamics of law enforcement, an effective anti-corruption program in Pakistan must remain free of corruption itself. Rules are more successfully upheld when they are in accordance with the self-interest, aptitude, and influence of the people who are obeying them rather than...
-
The difficulty in putting anti-corruption measures into effect in Pakistan stems from the original misunderstanding that developing nations are already very near to having a strong rule of law. As a result, efforts have frequently been focused on increasing accountability and openness, but these tactics have not produced the expected results. Reality is that...
-
It is critical to realize that measures to combat corruption cannot wait for a total shift of organizational authority and capacity in the economy. Instead, a more practical approach entails small-scale initiatives to enhance governance at different levels, targeting important problems that impede growth and that may be reasonably addressed by focused...
-
The difficulty in enacting anti-corruption laws in Pakistan is due to an initial misunderstanding that presumes emerging countries are already very near to a rule of law, where most people abide by the law. As a result, the emphasis has frequently been on enhancing transparency and accountability frameworks, with the hope that corruption will inevitably...

The saying "Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely" is true in Pakistan, underscoring a serious problem. The issue is made worse by the fact that dishonest people frequently go unpunished and that the wealthy can get away with breaking the law. The harsh consequences of the country's poor and vulnerable experience for their conduct highlight...

Riaz Hussain made a comment
Corruption in Pakistan can take many different forms, including bribery, theft, nepotism, and the improper use of public funds. Our society suffers greatly as a result of these unethical behaviors, which diminish public trust and cause economic inefficiency and development barriers.
We need doable and highly effective measures to effectively battle...

My goal in enrolling in the SOAS University of London course "Making Anti-Corruption Effective" is to increase my knowledge of development, governance, and anti-corruption initiatives. Even though I primarily work as an English teacher with an emphasis on language and education, I feel that learning more about these subjects can help me mentor my students more...
