NCRS for PC

The Ethiopian Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EFEACC) plays a crucial role in investigating and addressing corruption. However, the effectiveness of these efforts is often limited by the lack of reliable reporting mechanisms and citizen engagement.

The National Corruption Reporting System (NCRS) mobile app aims to bridge this gap by providing a secure and user-friendly platform for Ethiopian citizens to report instances of corruption, bribery, and unethical conduct by government officials and public service providers. By empowering the public to actively participate in the fight against corruption, the app seeks to enhance transparency, accountability, and the overall integrity of Ethiopia's public institutions.
