This study investigates the anti-corruption efforts of WHO, Global Fund, UNDP, and World Bank in the health sector – particularly during the Covid-19 pandemic, which has exacerbated corruption risks. It reveals a shift from punitive to preventative anti-corruption strategies, emphasising the need for well-funded initiatives with strong monitoring and evaluation. The research concludes that effective anti-corruption mechanisms are vital for maintaining quality healthcare and equitable access to health products, especially in times of crisis.
