1.0 Executive Summary

This Communications and Advocacy strategy has been developed to provide direction on how the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) can communicate its services to Malawians. The strategy document is for a five year period starting from 2017 to 2022 and there will be a midterm review.

This strategy has been developed based on Malawi’s experience in dealing with corruption issues and is directly aligned to the ACB strategic plan. The communication initiatives are linked to existing anti-corruption research and processes, which makes it relevant not only to the ACB but also to all stakeholders committed to fighting corruption. The development of this Communication Strategy has been informed by findings of the Governance and Corruption Survey (2014); lessons learnt in the delivery of the preceding ACB Communication Strategy for the period 2007 to 2010; and a Communications SWOT analysis of the internal and external environment of the ACB.

Apart from using the strategy to guide the dissemination of information on the evils and dangerous effects of corrupt practices on society as well as enlisting public support in the fight against corruption, the document will be used to solicit human and financial resources that is critical for realising the departments’ goals. It will also be used to guide the process of collaboration and coordination with other critical stakeholders.

In this strategy, the PED and PR have identified specific target groups namely: youths (secondary school going and out of school), public officials (procurement, stores and Accounts personnel), Area Development Committees and finally the media group (practitioners, managers and student journalists). Since each target group has its own perspective, issues and concerns around corruption, messages have been subsequently developed to reach each specific target group. The implementation plan and costing of activities for each target group have also been developed and will require a grand total of MWK500 million spread over a period of five years.

2.0 INSTITUTIONAL SET-UP AND COMMUNICATION CONTEXT

2.1 THE ANTI-CORRUPTION BUREAU

The Constitution of the Republic of Malawi requires that there should be institutions that guarantee “accountability, transparency, personal integrity and financial probity….[to]…strengthen confidence in public institutions”1

The Anti-Corruption Bureau was established in 1995 under the Corrupt Practices Act (CPA) as an independent agency of the Government mandated to fight corruption in Malawi. The ACB fulfils this mandate through public education, corruption prevention, investigation and prosecution of corruption cases in line with the CPA as well as the National Anti-Corruption Strategy. The ACB has four offices: the Head Office in Lilongwe, and branches in Blantyre, Mzuzu and Zomba.

OUR VISION Attainment of a corrupt-free Malawi.

OUR MISSION Create a corrupt free Malawi that promotes good governance

through corruption eradication programmes for social economic development.2

CORE VALUES• Quality service delivery• Personal and Professional conduct• Constitutional and Legal principles• Adaptation

2.2 COMMUNICATION STRUCTURE AND CAPACITY

The Bureau relies heavily on communication activities when carrying out its Public Education and Public Relations work. The Public Education Department gets its mandate from Section 10 (1)(a) (iii) and (iv) of the CPA to disseminate information on the evil and dangerous effects of corrupt practices on society as well as enlist and foster public support in the fight against corruption. The Department implements various interventions and initiatives which among others include conducting public interface forums, Anti-Corruption Presentations, Awareness campaigns, production and dissemination of IEC materials.

Staffing in Public Education Department has slightly improved since 2010. Currently, there are seven officers in the Department out of which one is Director of Public Education, one Principal Public Education Officer, four Senior Public Education Officers and one Public Education officer. There is hope that these numbers will increase.

The Public Relations Section is located under the Directorate to provide the linkage between the Anti-Corruption Bureau and stakeholders. Currently there is one officer and there is need to recruit more staff in the Public relations office. The Senior Public Relations Officer is the official spokesperson of the Bureau and reports directly to the Director General. The office is responsible for media interface programmes, press releases, and attend to any other enquiries from various stakeholders on the operations of the Bureau.

The Public Relations Section communicates information on the operations of the Bureau through, but not limited to press releases and briefs, responses to questionnaires and any other enquiries, internal bulletin, quarterly Newsletter, and website.

3.0 BACKGROUND INFORMATION ABOUT CORRUPTION

Corruption in Malawi occurs at numerous levels and for a myriad of reasons. It is rife both in the public and private sector. Some of the conditions that contribute to its prevalence in the public sector include low salaries, lack of transparent political processes, poor economic policies, enculturation, challenges in the judiciary and many more.3 Corruption has impeded Malawi’s ability to meet its needs and develop the economy. Through corruption and fraud the country is losing revenue and has also lost ability to attract external funding and investment.

In recent years Malawi has begun to take important policy and institutional action against corruption. The Government through the Chief Secretary issued a circular instructing Government Departments and Agencies to allocate 1% of their budget to anti-corruption fight. This is used by the Institutional Integrity Committtees (IIC) to carry out anti-corruption intiatives within government department and agencies.

Despite this effort by Malawi Government and institutions the corruption perception as reported by Transparency International indices for 2012 -2017 show that Malawi’s scores have declined and stagnated from 37 to 31 as shown in the following table:Table 1:

Transparency International Perception Index Scores for Malawi

Year 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017Score 37 37 33 31 31 31

Further, research findings of the 2014 Governance and Corruption Survey showed that up to 62% of Malawians believe that public officials are the leading perpetrators of corruption from 54% in 2010. This affects efficiency levels and quality of services offered by public agencies which have substantially deteriorated. This was also reflected in the Transparency International ranking of 2015 which is perception based and the discovery of plunder of public resources (cashgate) may have influenced the public perception.

Using the Governance and Corruption Survey of 2014 research findings, Strategic Plan, the ACB Communication strategy and experience from officers, the review team identified some measurable goals and objectives for the strategy. These objectives will guide the focus and work plans for the next five years (2017-2022).

The Bureau is committed to a proactive and strategic approach to preventing corruption and strengthening public trust in the organization’s work. As such, this strategy is relevant not only to the ACB’s PED and PRS, but also to all its partners.

4.0 RATIONALE FOR COMMUNICATIONS STRATEGY

Corruption is a complex phenomenon, but its results are clear. Where corruption persists, everyone pays and the losses are huge. The government pays because it is unable to account for resources, attract investment, stabilize the economy and win donor confidence. Citizens pay the heaviest price – in lack of basic services like availability of drugs in hospitals, well maintained road infrastructure, access to safe water and poor quality education, among others.

3 Center for Social Research, Report on the Governance and Corruption Survey 2014,

A robust communications strategy can play a crucial role in creating necessary conditions for intensifying public participation, building public trust in governance institutions and increasing access to information.

The Bureau considers communication as the most effective approach in shifting public attitudes away from being spectators to active participants. Increased outreach and partnerships at all levels of society including the grassroots can help people understand the laws relating to corruption and the implications that corruption has on their day-to-day lives. Likewise, strategic communication can help build the image and accessibility of the Bureau through the media and other advocacy campaigns. Advocacy can encourage transparency by providing greater access to public information.

In view of this, the Communication and Advocacy Strategy for the period 2017-2022 has been developed to replace the 2007-2010 Communication strategy which has been in use until recently. While the Bureau achieved a lot during the preceding period, there were also a number of challenges that were encountered. An attempt has been made in this strategy to address those challenges.

Some of the notable achievements from the previous Communication Strategy are as follows:

1. Awareness on corruption has greatly improved from 83% in 2010 to 96% in 20144.

2. Increased collaboration with various partners in the dissemination of corruption information. An example of a successful collaboration is with anti-corruption clubs and National Initiative for Civic Education (NICE) Public Trust using their district structures nationwide.

3. A track record of surpassing communication and outreach targets by the ACB Department of Public Relations and Public Education.

4. Due to increased awareness, a corresponding increase in the number of pursuable complaints5 reported to the Bureau compared to ten years ago.

5. Improved working relationship between the Bureau and the media.

6. Placement of court schedules in daily papers.

However, it was noted that one of the key shortfalls during this period was the ACB website which was not regularly updated and did not give a good impression about the Bureau.

There were also a number of lessons learnt that will be taken care of in the next strategy implementation period. These lessons are summarized below:

a) Involve partners in civic education activities.b) Anti-corruption civic education is legitimised by timely action on corruption complaints.c) Tailor made anti-corruption messages have assisted in effective implementation of civic education

programmes. d) Close monitoring of partners.e) Increasing medium of communication has led to increased demand for resources

5.0 SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS

This section provides a summarized analysis of the current situation of PED and PR target groups, as a way of determining appropriate strategies to be adopted in the fight against corruption. The analysis employed the use of PESTEL (Political, Economic, Social, Technological, Ecological/Environment and Legal factors/trends), as well as SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats) technique. The summarised results of both PESTEL and SWOT are in the Tables 2 and 3

Table 2: RESULTS OF PESTEL ANALYSIS

CATEGORY ISSUES

Political

• There is political will to fight corruption in public service.

• Development initiatives are party driven.

• People placing their personal interests above public interests. • Youths mostly used by politicians to promote political agenda • Politicians use media to castigate each other and the media.

Economic• High cost of living affecting their livelihood.• Low funding levels which affects operations of public institutions and this is perpetuating

corruption.

Social

• Culture of giving among Malawians.• Youths are a majority of the Malawian population (52.2%+) {Malawi Population Data

Sheet, 2017}• Public officers under pressure to support extended families.• Media affected by increasing social problems forcing them to give prominence to other

stories other than corruption.

Technological • Technology has eased communication.

Ecological• News coverage awash with environmental degradation stories.• Climate change which is affecting everyone.

Legal• Strong legislative framework such as Corrupt Practices Act etc.• Gaps in legal instruments such as Elections Act on campaign materials.

6.0 COMMUNICATION ISSUES, GOALS AND OBJECTIVES

From the analysis above, the following are the key communication issues to be addressed

1. Culturally, corruption in Malawi has been entrenched through nepotism, favouritism, cronyism which indicates lack of integrity and ethical conduct among public officials.

2. Lack of information on corruption issues among the youths has prevented them from actively participating in the fight against corruption. Hence being used by politicians.

3. Advancement in information and communication technology has positively contributed to media playing a critical role in the fight against corruption Success stories in the ACB operations in the face of citizen perceptions which seem to link the effectiveness of the Bureau to the number of cases investigated and prosecuted.

4. Loss of public confidence in the ACB due to alleged political interference or when reported cases of alleged corruption are not acted upon.

5. The ACB website has not been regularly updated with the latest information.

To effectively address these issues, the Bureau will use the following channels or tools:

11

• Electronic programs especially Community radios.• Social partnerships with relevant partners.• Interactions with the target group through interface meetings, presentations and workshops.

6.1 COMMUNICATION GOALSBy the end of the implementation period of this Communication Strategy in 2022, the PED and PRS wants to achieve the profile of the institution through

a) Increased awareness of the nature and effects of corruption among the youths and public officials.

b) Increased public confidence in the fight against corruption amongst stakeholders, media inclusive.

6.2 SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES1.1.1 To sensitise the public on the definition, causes and effects of corruption

1.1.2 To improve public image of the Bureau

1.1.3 To increase access to information as a tool for corruption prevention

1.1.4 To increase commitment to support anti-corruption initiatives.

7.0 TARGET GROUPS AND MESSAGESThe PED and PRS has identified specific target groups, specific messages and activities to guide implementation for communication plan. In addition, each activity is tied directly to key objectives, with monitoring and evaluation indicators designated for each. In this communication strategy, the following are the identified target groups; Youths (Secondary School Going and Out of School), Public Officials (Procurement, Accounts and Stores), Area Development Committees, Media (practising journalists, media managers and Student Journalists).

Since each target group has its own perspective, issues and concerns around anti-corruption messages were subsequently developed to specifically reach each target group specifically.

8.0 IMPLEMENTATION PLANThe strategy will be implemented through two program communication approaches namely: advocacy and social partnerships depending on problem behaviour of the target group. The target audience will determine communication strategies and activities, which will depend on the availability of the resources, access to expertise and the target audience.

Some activities have been planned in such a way that they will run through all the five years of the communication strategy while others are specific to a particular period (refer to Table 8.1).

There will be a midterm review of this communication strategy.

STRATEGY COSTINGThe strategy has used the 2017/18 budget as the benchmark for calculating the unit and total cost. The total cost for the subsequent years have been calculated by adding 10% of the total cost for the preceding year. It should be noted the unit cost is the total cost of activities that will be done in one outing. Refer to Table 8.2.

9.0 MONITORING AND EVALUATION

Monitoring and Evaluation of communication and advocacy activities will be done in liaison with the M&E section of the Bureau. Most importantly, monitoring and evaluation will allow the Bureau to change and adjust activities based on feedback.

Refer to Appendix 1 that shows the primary and secondary target groups, social partnerships, messages and activities that are most suitable for each group. M&E indicators for tracking progress of activities for each target group have been developed. From these matrices, the PED and PR officers can easily design work plans and budgets for their upcoming activities.

10.0 CONCLUSION

Communication is a crucial strategic tool in the fight against corruption. Targeted communication can maximize its effectiveness. This communication strategy will also help build public trust and participation in the fight against corruption. By using targeted groups and messages identified by the Communication strategy review team, the PED and PR can strategically focus their interventions. The specifics of this plan may change over time, but the format can be used to ensure that all activities contribute to the overall objectives and are reaching the right people.
