Whistleblower Protection & Support

Speaking truth to power. Together we build a transparent and accountable society.

Whistleblowers' Function

Ethics Institute of East Africa, in partnership with its global partners through the Whistleblowers of America, seeks to transform the way everyone thinks about whistleblowing and demonstrates the importance of whistleblowers in a transparent society.

EthicEA provides practical, accessible, and affordable assistance to whistleblowers through advocacy and advisory service initiatives geared towards enhanced protection and fairness for whistleblowers within the East African region.

All whistleblowers, especially those individuals who have suffered retaliation after having blown the whistle against fraud, bribery and other forms of corruption, are encouraged to register with EthicEA for future networking, collaboration, engagement and support.
