Since its inception, the GIEP has charted a successful journey towards implementing innovations in the delivery of ethical education in Pakistan. A few of the key achievements include:

• Adaptation, standardization and delivery of the four modules on Challenges of Ethical Living, Ethical Leadership, Behavioural Ethics, and Detecting and Investigating Corruption
• Mobilization of 14 corporate firms and two premier academic institutions as partners in implementation
• Training of 95 lecturers as mentors, who are now voluntarily teaching the GIEP modules as part of their regular courses, ensuring sustainability
• More than 50 senior corporate professionals trained in topics related to ‘Business Integrity’
• More than 80 guest lectures delivered from the corporate sector entities, showcasing their efforts and support to the promotion of business integrity
• The modules were taught to over 20,000 students till now, and 57 students received comprehensive training under the Ethics Ambassadors Training Programme

The Ethics Ambassadors Training Programme (EATP) is a critical initiative under the Global Integrity Education Project (GIEP), aimed at preparing final-year university students in Pakistan to become Ethics Ambassadors in the corporate sector. Through a hybrid, multi-level curriculum, the EATP equips students with the necessary skills and knowledge to promote integrity and transparency in their future jobs. The curriculum is practice-focused and includes thematic modules such as  corporate social responsibility, ethical decision-making, and stakeholder engagement, taught by experienced mentors and trainers.

Furthermore, the GIEP has yielded significant results and impact, as follows:

• A survey conducted after the training of Ethics Ambassadors found that over 90% of participants reported a greater understanding of ethical behaviour and believed that they were better equipped to identify and report ethical violations.
• Partner academic institutions have witnessed an increased demand for courses related to ethics and integrity.
• Corporate firms in Pakistan have shown increased awareness among of the importance of business ethics, leading to the adoption of policies and practices that promote integrity and transparency.

The Global Integrity Education Project (GIEP) in Pakistan is emerging as a significant integrity movement, spearheaded by the enthusiastic dedication of its Ethics Ambassadors. Mahnoor Ahmad, the Ethics Ambassador for Daewoo Pakistan remarked, “This training course has been phenomenal. I began looking at life from a completely different perspective. Working with Daewoo Pakistan, one of the largest transportation companies in Pakistan, I’m eager to put into practice values of integrity and ethical leadership.”Similarly, Umar Farooq, Ethics Ambassador for A.N. Engineering Industries stated, “It has been a huge learning experience for me as a UNODC ethics ambassador with A.N. Engineering Industries. I get hands on opportunities to practically apply my learning. I believe our passion to deliver will keep the values of ethics and morality alive for years to come.”

The accomplishments of GIEP are paving the way for ethical education in Pakistan's academic and corporate sectors, empowering young and creative minds to lead change. The UNODC and its partners envision that this project could transform how ethics and integrity are taught and implemented in the private sector, leading to a more ethical and sustainable future for businesses and communities.
