Resumo

Monitoring justice reforms is one of the missions of the Permanent Observatory of Justice (OPJ) of the Centre for Social Studies of the University of Coimbra. Within this framework, the creation of the Barometer for the Application of National Anti-Corruption Strategies (BeNAC) has a double objective: 1) to promote the debate on the phenomena of corruption and economic crime and on the strategies to combat them, both in the national and international context, with a special emphasis on Portuguese-speaking countries; and 2) to monitor the implementation of the measures contained in the Portuguese Anti-Corruption Strategy 2020-2024.
The Barometer includes a set of initiatives, which will be adapted and renewed in the coming years. Through them, we seek to create a space for reflection and public debate on those themes, open to judicial, political and social actors, academics and society in general. The Barometer will aggregate and produce relevant documents, information, knowledge, recommendations and opinions, contributing to a more efficient and effective implementation of public anti-corruption policies.
