Proética

What Proética does

Proética is a non-governmental, non-profit civil society organization headquartered in Miraflores, Lima, Peru, operating as the Peruvian chapter of Transparency International since 2003. With a small team of approximately 11 employees, it pursues a civic advocacy mission aimed at ending impunity and promoting integrity in public entities, businesses, and citizenship. Its work is organized around four action lines — Investigate, Experiment, Inspire, and Vigil — and is delivered through research publications, citizen oversight tools, legal support, policy advocacy, and multi-stakeholder convening.

The organization's portfolio includes the annual Índice de Percepción de la Corrupción (IPC) and the XIII National Survey on Corruption Perceptions (2025), the LIA Anti-Corruption Innovation Laboratory co-developed with UNDP (launched December 2025), the OLA Anti-Corruption Legal Office, an Environmental Governance Program, the Open Government Vigilance project, the Sistema de Seguimiento de Inversiones (SSI) citizen oversight platform used to monitor public investment projects in Cajamarca, and the 12-measure Agenda de Reformas por la Integridad. Technology components are lightweight civic-facing platforms rather than commercial software products; the SSI is the most notable operational tool, enabling civil society to track 29 prioritized projects under Cajamarca's 2025-2026 Participatory Budget.

As a non-profit, Proética generates no revenue from product or service sales. Its operations are funded through grants, donations, and international cooperation funding, with UNDP identified as a core institutional partner via the LIA initiative. Distribution is partnership-driven (working through business chambers, academic institutions, peer NGOs, and state institutions such as the Contraloría General) and direct civic engagement rather than commercial channels. Recent strategic positioning has included convening an Allies Meeting with 10+ institutional partners to advance the reform agenda, obtaining historic aggrieved-party recognition from Peru's Supreme Court in a corruption case, and inserting anti-corruption messaging into the 2026 electoral cycle.

Core offering

Proética is the Peruvian chapter of Transparency International and operates as a non-profit civil society organization. It conducts research on corruption perception, advocates for integrity-related policy reforms, provides legal anti-corruption assistance to citizens, monitors public investment projects, and runs citizen engagement programs to strengthen transparency in Peru.

Product overview

Proética is a non-governmental organization serving as the Peruvian chapter of Transparency International. It operates as a civic advocacy platform—not a technology product company—organized around four action lines: Investigate (corruption surveys, indices, research), Experiment (innovation labs, pilots), Inspire (ethics campaigns, citizen education), and Vigil (citizen oversight, legal support, public reporting tools). Its portfolio includes the annual Corruption Perception Index (IPC), the national corruption survey (13th edition), the LIA Anti-Corruption Innovation Laboratory, the OLA Legal Office, environmental governance programs, open government vigilance projects, and various publications and tools. The organization does not offer software-as-a-product but provides civic-facing platforms, research publications, and policy frameworks.
