Lecturers

We seek to lead by example and be of top-notch quality. Over the past 15 years more than one hundred outstanding experts taught at the Transparency School in Vilnius. The School lecturers are anti-corruption and accountability leaders that come from public, private, NGO and academic sectors and offer the participants unique perspectives on how to address corruption and promote transparency.

While the team of lecturers changes slightly every year, over time Transparency School has welcomed speakers from the World Bank Institute, OECD, OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR), Global Witness, Amnesty International, U4, The Behavioural Insight Team, HUMBOLDT-VIADRINA Governance Platform, Center for Government Excellence at Johns Hopkins University, Global Investigative Journalism Network, Open Contracting Partnership, Corruption Watch, Integrity Action, MySociety, Sunlight Foundation, Global Advice and various Transparency International chapters and other organizations.

We are currently working on the programme for Transparency School 2025. Thus, we encourage you to revisit this page for the most up-to-date information. In addition, please find more information about the previous editions of the School below.
