The importance of the culture of public integrity and the risks of fraud and corruption that may exist in the local administration were addressed by Pilar Moreno, the Agency’s training technician. The cycle of anti-fraud measures, with special attention to the detection, correction and prosecution phases, were presented by Marita Oliver, AVAF training technician. During their session, emphasis was placed on the AVAF reporting channel as an external channel for the local entities of the Valencian Community.

The online day ended with a workshop on the management of conflict of interest in local administration, facilitated by the AVAF Training Service. The active participation of public employees at the event made it possible to know that the lack of planning is the most noted risk that must be taken into account when making decisions in the local administration.
