Future Studies Center and Yemeni Center for Strategic Studies and Civil Society Forum announced that a committee for combating corruption and support transparency and accountability was formed.
A report signed by those centers says that corruption has spread over all aspects of our society and has become a complete system destroying any democratic project. Therefore, these centers find it better to work together to fight it.
Corruption was defined in the statement as an abuse of power or public function for getting personal gains by means of bribery, embezzlement, seizing public treasury or facilitating dealings in return for money and other corrupt behavior.
