Transparency International Amalia Award 2022 - News [1]

[]

Date: 2023-01

The 2022 recipient of the Amalia Award for Professional Excellence is Maíra Martini, research and policy expert on corrupt money flows at the Transparency International Secretariat.

In the 11 years that she has been with Transparency International, Maíra has numerous accomplishments. From helping to establish the Anti-Corruption Helpdesk so that our community has the evidence they need for their advocacy, to providing chapters with tactical and strategic advice at critical moments, she has been a true asset for the organisation and the international fight against corruption.

Most significantly, Maíra has built our movement’s research, policy and advocacy agenda to disrupt international flows of dirty money. It’s a testament to her professional excellence that Maíra’s expertise is in high demand: she is someone whom our movement colleagues, journalists and other partners actively seek out to help make sense of complex cases and inner workings of cross-border corruption.

Maíra is a visionary and yet practical advocate, and the evidence-based policy solutions that she puts forward are game-changing, impactful and achievable. Earlier this year, the anti-corruption community celebrated the revision of the global standard on transparency in company ownership, which means that all countries will now have to establish registers that reveal who really controls and benefits from companies. Maíra was the person to first recommend this, and she then made it happen by pushing for action by decision-makers to make this milestone possible.
