Stop the shop

3 out of 4 people in Lebanon accept corruption; the remaining 1 in 4 gave up the fight against it. Corruption is so wide spread that it is almost impossible to get anything done without engaging in it in some form, its application is seen as a necessary evil. Corruption has become so powerful; it runs on an economy of its own, like a private business taking over the public sector, treating citizens’ rights as disposable merchandise. 

Our brief was to push people to report and denounce corruption, even when they engage in it, and ultimately use the data to influence positive change. We thought that if corruption thrives like a private business, then it could go bankrupt like a private business:  We created the Country’s shop where everything is for sale, even you.
