Did corruption undermine the international mission in Afghanistan? Increasing evidence says it did. Please join us for the launch of a new report from Transparency International’s Defense and Security Program, Corruption: Lessons From the International Mission in Afghanistan. The report provides a rigorous analysis of the damage that corruption—and turning a blind eye to it—did to the Afghanistan mission, based on interviews with seventy-five Afghans and internationals who were deeply involved in the mission. The report also offers a policy framework for countering this threat in future security assistance and stabilization operations. Join Carnegie for a conversation with Mark Pyman, author of the report. Carnegie’s Sarah Chayes moderated.
