佐藤栄作 受賞論文集

When we collectively analyze the situation of least developed countries of Africa,human development index (HDI), and corruption perceptions index (CPI) ranks, it isevident that CPI and HDI ranks can be linked as shown in Table 1, and Figure 2. TheUN efforts to increase transparency, benchmarking aid effectiveness and appropriatedistribution of donor resources in these countries will contribute to the successof poverty reduction. This also involves developing effective leadership qualitiesamong Africans to fight for corruption, mismanagement of resources, ODA (OfficialDevelopment Assistance), and charity funds. The UN also needs to make sure thatfunds are rightly utilized for the projects planned.One of the innovative approaches to control the mismanagement of ODA and thecharity funds is to apply the Right To Information Act (RTI), which is widely popularin India. 19 The RTI can be viewed as a grass-root strategy to fight against corruption.This act is the most effective and systematic procedure to stop corruption, wherethe citizens themselves have the right to take the initiative to seek information fromthe state and thereby to enforce transparency and accountability. RTI Act providesa good transparency measure to general public, right to access government files,ask questions and progress in their public welfare works. Such acts are inevitablynecessary in poor and highly corrupt countries. The UN can enforce this act to donorand receiver organization as well as country of governance to monitor the funds andits usage. RTI is an effective way to break the traditional way of aid mismanagementthereby enhancing poor-motivated administrative style. It also increases the opennessin political and administrative system within the UN and builds confidence the UNadministration. Recently United Nations reported that, the Right to Information Act2005 was“one of the most progressive legislations”in the developing world for tackling73219 Right to Information.
