The loan will specifically support a project that eyes helping the country enhance its transparency standards, and subsequently reduce corruption levels as measured by World Bank indicators and move up in the Transparency International index from 3.0 today to 4.0 by 2020.
Under the project, the Colombian Office of the Attorney General will develop coordination mechanisms between the headquarters and its bureaus throughout the country and a public contract guide to facilitate public works supervision efforts, as well as issue a good practices manual for government procurement.
