    Thank you so much and for the interview, although tough to follow great TPA champions like Cheri-Leigh Erasmus and many others you talked to recently. Best!

    spoke on collaboration among field actors in the transparency, participation, and accountability (tpa) field and how such collaboration can help build a promising strategy and sets of solution to combat corruption.

    Below I argue that “It’s the economics of journalism that drive the algorithms. Let’s not get distracted and lose sight of the core problem. It’s not just the algorithms that need auditing. It’s also the profit-driven structure of news media that needs a do-over.”

    "We never fixed what was broken about old media. Instead, we built something new on top of an already flawed foundation." —

    Counter-kleptocracy is no longer the future. It is now the present. It is now the strategy of the United States. Though we must now fight hard for implementation and multilateralization, this is a HUGE milestone. Extraordinary!
