Turkish Integrity Center of Excellence - TICE Turkish Integrity Center of Excellence aims to level the playing field by inclusion of the private se

Businesses seldom have appropriate expertise to implement internationally developed anti-corruption and good governance guidelines and standards. Assessment of improvement is hardly possible due to non-existing coherent data regarding socio-economic effects of corruption on leading sectors of the local economy. Many companies have some sort of ethical standards but what they don’t have is a compli

ance program to turn those standards into the very basis of their written corporate culture. Consequently business ethics remain a soft skill for the companies rather than a value and an asset to be measured, reported and effectively managed. Our Vision is to create a cultural change in the Turkish Private Sector and train compliance officers who will effectively manage integrity risks for their companies. Turkish Integrity Center of Excellence - TICE was founded to play the crucial role for this vision. TICE is a platform that will impact the Turkish Business both nationally and internationally in increasing its compliance standards. We do not only act as a point of reference for the private sector companies assisting them to implant the principles of business ethics but we also work closely with the legislator in the pursuit of a socio‐economic environment where companies act in compliance with those principles do not lose their competitiveness but gain advantages.

The Anti-Corruption Directive (Directive (EU) 2026/1021) entered into force on May 31, 2026!

Adopted on 29 April 2026, published in the Official Journal of the European Union on 11 May 2026, and entering into force on 31 May 2026, the Anti-Corruption Directive (Directive (EU) 2026/1021) aims to harmonize criminal law rules on combating corruption across the EU. The Directive establishes a common framework for offences such as bribery in the public and private sectors, trading in influence, misappropriation of property by public officials, corruption-related illicit enrichment, obstruction of justice, and the concealment of proceeds from corruption.

From a corporate perspective, one of the most noteworthy aspects of the Directive is that it does not focus solely on post-violation sanctions, but also emphasizes corporate liability, effective internal control mechanisms, and genuinely functioning compliance programmes. In this respect, the Directive once again underlines the importance of ethics and compliance mechanisms that go beyond “paper-based” programmes and operate effectively in practice.

During the Summit, the topics of cybersecurity, social media censorship, and the misuse of artificial intelligence were addressed from an ethical perspective. Within the framework of these themes, participating students discussed the impact of the digital world on individuals, institutions, and society. The students also drafted manifestos reflecting their ethical awareness regarding the responsible, fair, secure, and human-centered use of technology, thereby contributing to a more trustworthy and ethical digital life of the future.

As the Ethics and Reputation Society, we would like to thank the Özel Sezin High School administration, teachers, Ethics Committee, the teachers of all participating schools, and our young participants.
