Abstract

Corruption represents a multifaceted global challenge that undermines human rights recognized by International Law. This research paper delves into the intricate interplay between corruption and human rights, aiming to shed light on the potential of international human rights frameworks in combating corruption. Drawing upon a comprehensive review of existing literature and international legal instruments, this study examines the transboundary nature of corruption and its adverse impacts on human rights. The study contributes to the existing body of knowledge by advocating for a holistic approach to combating corruption, recognizing its adverse human rights impacts, and presenting recommendations to bridge the gap between corruption and human rights in policy and practice.
