The Ethics Office
The Ethics Office ensures that the highest ethical standards are promoted and maintained throughout IFAD’s work, policies and practices. The office’s primary role is to address allegations of misconduct promptly and confidentially, and to provide guidance on preventing conflicts of interest and unethical behaviour.

The Ethics Office is responsible for:
Managing IFAD’s ethics education programme.
Training on the Code of Conduct and harassment policies.
Advising staff on actions that may violate the Code of Conduct.
Reviewing allegations of misconduct and, where warranted, referring cases for investigation to the Office of Audit and Oversight.
Assessing organizational risk for misconduct and contributing to the corporate enterprise risk framework.
Protecting IFAD’s reputation.
