Preventing and combating corruption is one of the main tasks of the state. It should be noted that the war is another reason to fight this negative phenomenon. Unfortunately, Ukraine has an insufficient level of countering and preventing corruption, as statistical studies show that its scale is not decreasing. Therefore, public authorities need to pay special attention to improving anti-corruption mechanisms and measures to ensure the quality and safe functioning of public policy for the benefit of Ukrainian society.

The article comprehensively examines the ethics of a civil servant as a means of preventing and countering corruption. It is emphasized that civil servants have a special public purpose, goals, tasks that are determined by the specifics of their professional activity.

The article highlights the most actual social problem of Ukraine, as well as many countries around the world - preventing and counteracting corruption in all fields of government through cooperation with international organizations.
