The University of Kara, in Togo, hosted an inaugural lecture on Tuesday 10 November 2026 on the permanent integration of anti-corruption and integrity education into its courses. The initiative is led by the High Authority for the Prevention and Fight against Corruption and Related Offences (HAPLUCIA). The lecture’s theme was "Academic excellence through the lens of public ethics: the University of Kara, incubator of a culture of integrity".
It forms part of the project to integrate these teachings into teaching and training curricula in Togo. HAPLUCIA intends to make the university a setting for training citizens committed to probity, transparency, civic spirit and responsibility.
In his presentation, Professor Alosse Charles Grégoire said the fight against corruption must begin with the training of students. In his view, the university must shape citizens who carry patriotic, civic and ethical values. "Students must not regard these teaching units as just one more teaching unit, but as specific teaching units that have practical relevance," he said. He added that the responsibility for promoting integrity does not rest solely on students.
The lecture follows the announcement on 21 October of the preparation of school courses on the fight against corruption in Togo.
