Inclusive economic growth, environmentally sustainable growth, and regional integration are the Asian Development Bank's (ADB) strategic priorities. Governance is a key issue and a driver of change that cuts across these strategic priorities. To successfully employ these strategic priorities, ADB staff need to understand the particular governance and anticorruption issues and risks related to each strategic priority. They must also be able to incorporate measures into ADB projects that promote good governance and prevent corruption. This Governance Guide seeks to equip project counsel with the knowledge to assist project teams in integrating governance and anticorruption measures into ADB projects and across ADB's core priorities.
