This is the conclusion of the report published by Transparency International Hungary. The study reveals that youngsters are united in their view that honesty does not pay, and people ready to lie, cheat and steal can get along much better in Hungary today than those who are uncorrupted. Although young people mostly reject corruption, economic hopelessness often overrides their moral principles; getting admitted to a good university or the hope of a well-paying job can be more attractive than preserving integrity. The striking results of this survey as well as the latest findings of TI’s questionnaire on the corruption risks of higher education (e.g. that ’nearly a quarter of students cheat or crib in exams) made it clear to us that immediate actions need to be taken in order to shake up the young generation. What better way is there to reach out to the youth than asking them directly about their opinions? Well, in the form of a joint, EC-funded project called ‘Youth in Action’ we conducted a parallel dialogue with young people in Hungary and Slovenia in order to find out how they would raise awareness in their communities on the topic of corruption.
