Method. A quasi-experimental design was employed, involving pre- and post-test surveys administered to 250 high school students who participated in an anti-corruption education program. Results. The results revealed a significant improvement in students’ understanding of corruption and their commitment to anti-corruption behaviors. Students reported greater awareness of the consequences of corruption and showed stronger intentions to act ethically in personal and professional settings. Conclusion. The study concludes that anti-corruption education programs can play an important role in shaping positive attitudes and behaviors toward corruption prevention. These findings suggest that integrating anti-corruption education into school curricula can help promote integrity and reduce future involvement in corrupt practices. ]]>
