The PIC is implementing a 3-year Mac-Arthur Foundation-funded grant titled ‘Harnessing Behavioural Insight to Improve Transparency in Nigeria’. This project aims to support an ecosystem of state and non-state actors with the capacity and capability to drive behaviourally-informed anticorruption reforms across sectors in Nigeria. This project also seeks to strengthen the capacity of transparency, governance, and accountability organizations in Nigeria through a learning series and the implementation of hands-on behavioural interventions. The PIC also organizes design workshops to identify urgent priorities within the sector and document the gaps and opportunities for harnessing financial transparency and accountability in Nigeria.

This project funded by the Open Society Initiative for West Africa is designed to assess pre-election activities, programs and policies of the government in the political/governance and economic sectors using a human-rights-based approach and generate lessons and insights to set a post-election policy agenda for the incoming national government.
