Botanic Gardens Conservation International (BGCI) has a zero-tolerance approach to fraud, bribery and corruption in all forms. As a charity working globally in plant conservation, often through field programmes, local partners and agents in countries where corruption risk can be elevated, we recognise that robust prevention, detection and response procedures are essential to protect our beneficiaries, our supporters’ trust, our funding, and our reputation.

This policy applies to all trustees, employees, volunteers, consultants and contractors, and to all overseas offices, field programmes, grantees and partner organisations acting on behalf of BGCI, wherever in the world they operate.
