National Anti-Corruption Strategy and Action Plan. The Strategy brings all stakeholders under one roof to promote accountability and transparency, resulting in having a coordinated programme to promote governance. Since the ACC operates in a dynamic environment the challenges facing the ACC keep evolving. Perpetrators of corruption continue to discover new ways of evading detection. The ACC needs to be ahead of the methods used by criminals in order to win the fight against corrupt elements in society. The regulatory framework must also be adapted to respond to the evolving environment. The techniques, tools and the communication technology that the ACC deploys should be adapted to address the challenges brought about by a changing environment. The ACC also needs to continuously re-evaluate and upscale the skills of staff members in order to deal with the emerging challenges in the fight against corruption. The vision is to have a corrupt-free Namibia. Consequently, the first objective is to reduce corruption. The second objective is to enhance stakeholder engagement and coordinate the inputs of various stakeholders on anti-corruption efforts. The ACC shall galvanise support from all sectors of society to actively participate in the implementation of the National Anti-Corruption Strategy. In order to remain relevant in the changing world, the ACC has decided to focus efforts on strengthening its internal capacity to enable the Commission to fully execute its mandate. During the next five years, the ACC shall utilise the strong foundation laid to adapt the Commission to the changing needs. In addition, the ACC shall re-examine internal systems and procedures and sharpen them to effectively and efficiently respond to the demands. The ACC shall also review the organizational structure and align it to this five year strategy to ensure effective execution of its mandate. The ACC shall further invest in human resources to ensure that skills and attitude remain fit for the job. The implementation of the Strategic Plan requires a changed mindset, which sees opportunities and possibilities for improvement. Furthermore, the job at hand can only be successfully completed through teamwork. Everyone can and must contribute to the fight against corruption. Hence this Strategic Plan calls for effective implementation and continuous evaluation.
