TI – Transparency International is a global civil society organisation<br />
leading the fight against corruption. TI is a network<br />
including more than 90 locally established national chapters<br />
and chapters-in-formation. These bodies fight corruption in<br />
the national arena in a number of ways. They bring together<br />
relevant players from government, civil society, business and<br />
the media to promote transparency in elections, in public<br />
administration, in procurement and in business. TI’s global network<br />
of chapters and contacts also use advocacy campaigns<br />
to lobby governments to implement anti-corruption reforms.<br />
Politically non-partisan, TI does not undertake investigations<br />
of alleged corruption or expose individual cases. TI has the<br />
skills, tools, experience, expertise and broad participation to<br />
fight corruption on the ground, as well as through global and<br />
regional initiatives. For a lot more information and tools, see<br />

UNEP – UNEP’s Sustainable Buildings and Construction Initiative<br />
(SBCI) is a “sister initiative” of the Marrakech Task Force<br />
on Sustainable Buildings and Construction. It has its own<br />
website, where also the main documents of the Task Force are<br />
available: www.unepsbci.org. Among other activities, SBCI is<br />
forming a partnership with a university to undertake as complete<br />
as possible a review and analysis of existing governmental<br />
policies and tools to encourage energy efficiency in buildings.<br />
The intention is to have well over a hundred countries<br />
covered from all over the world. First results will be available<br />
towards the end of 2007.<br />
