Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission

The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission, abbreviated as the EACC, is a Kenyan government agency established to combat and prevent corruption in the country. The commission operates through direct law enforcement and preventive measures in addition to the education and promotion of standards and best practices in integrity and ethics in Kenya.

The EACC was established on 29 August 2011 after Kenya's President Mwai Kibaki signed the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Act, replacing the former Kenya Anti-Corruption Commission pursuant to the 2010 Constitution of Kenya.
