Exploring Blockchain Technology for Government Transparency: Blockchain-Based Public Procurement to Reduce Corruption

The project takes a three-pronged approach to blockchain experimentation in the anti-corruption context, focusing specifically on public procurement. It includes: 1) a software proof-of-concept (PoC); 2) the enumeration of complementary policy proposals to strengthen procurement integrity; and 3) a civic engagement strategy focused on encouraging and empowering citizen monitors to flag risky behaviour in the system. This report aims to communicate the findings of this novel and multifaceted project with the goal of identifying the value of blockchain technology for public procurement and laying the foundation for similar experimentation, innovation and adoption worldwide.
