Recovering ✅ Better with Integrity

Corruption, bribery, theft, tax evasion, and other illicit financial flows cost developing countries $1.26 trillion per year. That is roughly the combined size of the economies of Switzerland, South Africa and Belgium, and enough money to lift 1.4 billion people who live on less than $1.25 a day above the poverty threshold and keep them there for at least six years.

Corruption has truly become a global 🌍 challenge, with no country being immune to it. It negatively affects people, communities and entire nations. It also undermines democratic processes, reinforces injustice, and increases poverty. Furthermore, it weakens the essential public services, raises the cost of doing business and undercuts investment in development. In sum, corruption adversely affects all three dimensions of sustainable development: economic, social and environmental.

In the times like COVID-19 pandemic that has affected all countries, the negative impact of corruption gets manifested and becomes obvious. COVID-19 has exposed vulnerabilities in health systems and public service delivery throughout the world as myriad cases of misuse of public funds, lax contracting processes and maladministration have come to light.

Kazakhstan has sustained its efforts to combat corruption and gradually shifts towards preventative measures. Ratification of the United Nations Convention against Corruption in 2008 is an important milestone in this process. Having joined GRECO in 2019, Kazakhstan once again confirmed its strong intention to promote integrity in public and private sectors and put more constraints on corruption. In 2019, Kazakhstan improved ⬇️ its ranking in the global Corruption Perception Index from 124 in 2018 to 113 out of 198 countries.

3 Reasons Why Honesty ✨ Is Important In A Friendship

▶️ Healthy and mature growth of friendship is based on Honesty.
We become friends to many when we start schooling. With the passage of time we meet different fellows, and among them, a few remain with us for a long time. In those few ones, we find those who remain honest to us and we trust in them. The relationship in school results in friendship and it grows on if honesty stays among them. A healthy friendship is always based on honesty and it grows if the friends remain true to each other.

▶️ Honesty is a secret of successful friendship
Why is honesty important in a friendship? We all believe that no relationship is successful without honesty. Self-respect and being trustworthy are the most important things in friendship. An honest friend stands with you at every stage of life. So, it is important, to be honest with friends in order to have an everlasting friendship with them.

▶️ Honesty is liberating element in Friendship
No one is perfect as we all make mistakes in our life. We usually make such mistakes upon which we regret. Honesty in friendship lets go any kind of unhealthy conditions and discourages the associations which have no healthier effect of well-being. Instead, honesty allows the beautiful and mature friendship to grow and loom.

Greet and meet 🤗 one of our new rubrics «What does the word “integrity” mean to you?».

We will share thoughts 📨 about how people understand the word «Integrity».

The quality of being honest with yourself each day, each moment, and each instance. Specifically, it also means to have strict moral principles towards you as an identity. It shows to what extent good you are. Being a good person is not that easy.

As you have already mentioned, everyone is challenging an integrity every day whether they are in queue or exam. It is the core quality through which an individual builds strong personality which further affect relationship and interaction of his or her surrounding

Academic ✅ Integrity supports institutions in implementing a consistent and unified approach to integrity training. Made up of five staff-facing modules and five student-facing modules, the programme ensures that every member of the university community is on the same page when it comes to what constitutes best academic practice in their role – substantially reducing the risk of misconduct.
 
The student-facing modules provide a well-rounded guide 📄 to studying with integrity, emphasising the positive values, skills, and behaviour necessary throughout their studies and post-graduation.
 
The staff-facing modules demonstrate how to make use of academic integrity tools in a way that has a lasting impact – addressing key 🔑 issues such as contract cheating, assessment, technology, and group work.

3 ways lying 🤫 destroys your relationship

▶️ Lying destroys trust
Every relationship is built on mutual trust, whether that relationship it is romantic or not. Lying quickly erodes that trust, hurting both parties in the process. Whether it is keeping secrets or telling a little white lie, lying destroys one of the fundamental pillars of a healthy relationship — trust. Whether you got caught or suddenly decided to come clean and you were forgiven, the fact of the matter is that for a relationship to work, both parties must be able to trust each other. Though some might argue that trust can always be regained, it is not as simple as it sounds as the hurt partner will have so many mental blocks up that it might be difficult to regain trust. ▶️ No one tells just one lie
Lies not only grow but they tend to become addictive especially if you have gotten away with a few already. There is a tendency to want to lie every time you find yourself in a jam because for you telling a lie is easier than telling the truth. And the problem arises when you tell too many lies as these lies may become difficult to contain. Simply put, one lie equals more lies and not only that, lies grow over time as it becomes harder and harder for you to keep your story straight. ▶️ Lying hurts the ones you care about the most
When you tell a lie, your intention is never to hurt anyone but to instead get yourself out of a sticky situation. But lies do hurt. By telling a loved one a lie, they will feel betrayed by you and it is this feeling of betrayal that can lead to a breakdown in communication, making them feel even more vulnerable than they already are! Love doesn’t hurt but lies do; and the moment you start telling lies, it is no longer love.

While the concept of integrity has long been ⏳ explored by great philosophers and thinkers, its application in modern and postmodern business and economic contexts has been underdeveloped. Little have been done to address the vagueness and paradoxicality of integrity and its shadow reality of counterfeits.

The thematic collection, which this paper complements, entitled ‘Integrity and Its Counterfeits: Implications for Economy 💰, Business and Management’, makes a contribution towards filling the gap between the abstract concept of integrity and its application into business and economy, with a particular attention on the ambiguous, equivocal and diverse meanings of the concept, the complex and dynamic practicality of integrity, and the grey and dark areas of business out of integrity.

This article 🖇 introduces the background of the research theme and provides exemplary debates and emerging avenues of discussion on this topic.

We will share thoughts 📨 about how people understand the word «Integrity».

Integrity for me is all about saving ✅ respect towards myself and others. I have met intersection of integrity issues, namely, when your friend is ruining that academic integrity and you don't want to report about that to anyone else, as you are keeping your friendship intergrity, and sometimes i got confused which specific integrity means more to me.

Anyway, I came to idea 💡 of respecting myself - my choice of being a friend and keeping boundaries by not crossing her decisions. Hence, integrity - is something which circles me wherever I go snd whenever I am, It is what defines my actions.

Academic Integrity 🎯 Quiz

Test your knowledge and understanding of academic dishonesty by answering the following question.

You submit a 📃 paper that you wrote and submitted in a prior term's course. Is this a breach of academic integrity? Yes or no

✅ Yes. Professors assume your work is original to their course, unless you specifically cite the prior work. If you want to build on prior work, discuss this with your professor prior to submitting your paper, so he or she knows which work has been done specifically for the current course.

You may have seen dozens of them lately. Cases of contract cheating ❌ and the recent college scam with celebs involved are still making the headlines.

Eventually, they may sidetrack your attention. But do they have anything to do with academic cheating in higher school 🏫 or university? What started once with cheating on exams may turn into the long-lasting habit of cutting corners.

The pressure to obtain better grades lessens the value of academic performance. As an outcome, you have to double the effort in helping students focus 🌟 on learning itself.

Shortcutting is tempting. But this shouldn’t put all students under suspicion. There is something that inclines them to think 🤔 that cheating is inevitable.

The statistics 📊 collected from recent and most large-scale surveys can reveal how common academic dishonesty is today.

Integrity - is doing the right ✅ thing even when nobody is watching you. You do the right things because they are right and, most important, don't lie to yourself.

📝: Chingiz Tuleubayev
The most common definition 📃 of integrity is doing the right thing when no one is watching. It’s a great definition and can serve you well in life, but what about self-integrity?

Self-integrity is not based on external commitments to those around you, but to yourself. It’s centered on the question, how well 🤔 do I keep the commitments I make to myself?

Commitments that you make to yourself are just as important, if not more important than those you make to others. While breaking ❌ commitments to others will break their level of trust in you, breaking commitments with yourself erodes trust in yourself, which also leads to a decline in self-confidence.
