Leveraging behavioral insights to mitigate public procurement corruption in Nigeria

29 Apr 2024

Behavioral science is concerned with understanding how humans act in different fields, providing insight into the way people make decisions. These insights may be used to design and implement public policy tools to (positively) influence human behavior. In relation to addressing corruption, behavioral insights may inform effective anti-corruption interventions that encourage ethical decisions and practices. These interventions may include "nudges," which are small manipulations in the way choices are presented that can inspire people to make better choices.
