INTRODUCTION

A Call to Action: How to Build a Corruption-Free Future for Our Youth. The development of any country is affected by corruption and terrorism. Both elements have power over anyone who comes near them, and are trapped to them very tightly. Corruption and Terrorism are not taught in any schools and colleges, nor written in any book on how to do and destroy any state, country, or anyone's house. But very few people are involved in it; those who are trapped in the past. They have a limited and very sharp gang. Their mental force to act and destroy the country. It is a very silent and secret work that works in darkness, and an insidious force that erodes the very foundations of society. It starves public services of funding, undermines trust in our institutions, and perpetuates inequality, leaving the most vulnerable behind. 

 Every country is suffering from corruption and has been trying to remove it for a long time. The reason behind this work is to quickly get rich and earn money. It has become a universal identity of a lack of development in any country. If you ask any youth, " If you become a minister," what do you want to do first of all? Surely he will say very proudly, I will try to remove corruption and dishonesty.

The corruption started from the house and society, and then it will cross the boundary quietly. If anyone is involved in this kind of horrible act whole society will be affected by it. His or her family members are not aware until they come into the limelight in society. Corruption brings destruction, separation, and gives birth to murder. This is a matter of dishonor for any country.  This generation is very quick to learn and adapt in their life.

 That person who was involved in such kinds of acts left a very bad legacy to the new generation. Which can affect the whole World.

Building a corruption-free future for our youth is not a mere aspiration and a source of hope, but it is an urgent necessity. This monumental task requires a multi-pronged strategy from the government and strong laws that extend far beyond political rhetoric. 

It demands a fundamental change and positive mindset and values, a commitment to education, counselling to youths, transparent systems, and, most importantly, a dedicated effort to empower young people themselves to be agents of change. This article will serve as a guide for this journey for this generation. They can explore how we can plant the seeds of integrity, a positive mindset, and the mindset for well-being.

Update the stylebus about free corruption in schools and colleges, and foster a culture that celebrates honesty and free corruption.

Before that, moral teaching should be applied in every house, and a strong decision to stand against corruption and dishonesty. and create the systemic reforms needed to make corruption not just illegal, but unthinkable. The future we build is the future they will inherit, and it is our solemn duty to ensure it is one built on a bedrock of integrity.

Let's discuss further the reasons is of corruption and how we can save the new generation from it.

1. The Economic and Social Drivers of Corruption

 Most of the country believed in political leaders to control the economic system. The government makes the regulation to operate smoothly and mt it benefit everyone. Every year or every five years, having a revision over it and recalculating the budget. For some reason, all the budgets are on paper only. And its main reason comes out to be corruption, discrimination, and social disparities.

Corruption often thrives in environments where economic disparities are stark and where opportunities for legitimate advancement are limited. For example, Low job creation and orientation, Privatisation, Higher education costs, weak laws, and a lack of honesty and integrity among government departments. Sometimes they become blind behind their position and money. They don't understand their actual responsibility, which is given to them.

Another good example I want to give here is that low public sector wages, for instance, can incentivize officials to seek illicit income. 

At a societal level, a lack of access to essential services like healthcare and education, electricity distribution, and house allowance can push individuals to pay bribes to gain access. Corruption to get a government job. Once I had visited the revenue department for small work, they directly demanded money from an peon.

When a person believes that their success is dependent on "who they know" rather than "what they know," it reinforces a corrupt mindset. A culture where poverty and inequality are widespread often fosters an environment where people feel they have no choice to do anythings but to participate in corrupt systems to survive.

The Role of Weak Institutions and Legal Frameworks

Here are the primary reasons for the prevalence of corruption is a weak institutional and legal system.  When laws are not consistently enforced, no fear, no respect, and there is a lack of accountability, and corrupt individuals operate with impunity,  how can they act such dishonestly, by the way they are working for the public?

An inefficient and weak judiciary, along with a lack of whistleblower protection in that sector, further emboldens those who misuse their power. No one to stop them, nor anyone has the power to stop me. They have no fear of punishment and legal action.

Where there is no strong legal framework and a credible threat of punishment, the risk-reward calculation for corruption tilts heavily in favor of the corrupt. Reforming these systems to be more transparent, efficient, and just is crucial for building a more honest society.

The Cultural and Behavioral Acceptance of Corruption

It is true some societies, corruption has become so ingrained that it is viewed as a social norm rather than a crime. One family member is involved in corruption, feeding the whole family from corrupt money with great pride. Children are getting a good education from corrupt wealth. What is the mistake of their children?. 

The family is accepting all they do, respecting their money and corrupt work, because money is everything for them. The position of corruption is rewarding for them. This kind of act every country, and it is very difficult to move out of society, because it is an acceptable work for them.

Corruption has become a cultural acceptance, often stemming from a long history of poor governance, which can lead to a cycle where people believe that "everyone does it." This mentality normalizes petty corruption, starting from small societies—like giving a small bribe to a traffic officer—and makes it harder to challenge large-scale corruption. This kind of culture we are accepting and helping to make a strong culture. This acceptance can be deeply problematic for the new generation, as they are socialized into a system where ethical compromise is seen as a necessary part of life.

You know these so many kinds of corruption are happening around you. Let's come ahead and join hands to hand for erase the corruption which spread among us, so that we can make a safe future for the upcoming generations. Now, I am writing the main point of what we should do as a family the society, and our country to keep to new generation.

Early Education and Ethical Training at Home

 It is most important to give our children moral education and religious education at home and in society. This is what we are lacking in every family. It is a child disrespecting elders outside, and parents know it, but parents do not explain to their children about that. The family is the first school where children learn moral education and receive so much ethical training at home. Saving the new generation starts from home with fundamental changes in moral teaching, then early education. In schools can integrating ethics, civics, and lessons on the societal costs of corruption into school curricula from an early age is vital. 

This education should not just be theoretical but should include practical examples in every class and discussions about real-world ethical dilemmas. By teaching children about honesty, integrity, fairness, respect for women and girls, explaining to them the value of money, and the importance of a transparent society where elders should handle corruption if it happens in the society of any family. 

We can indicate them with a strong moral compass that will guide their decisions throughout their lives,  they can raise their voice against corruption, and empower them to recognize and resist corruption.
