1.2.1.
Everyday corrupt practices are an established norm of conduct and are not perceived as violations of moral or legal norms. There is no consistent demand from the population for public officials to uphold the prescribed rules of ethical conduct and integrity
General information about the problem
Citizens in Ukraine lack full trust in the state and its key institutions. According to sociological research, this negative circumstance leads to a number of other problems that largely prevent Ukraine from making significant progress towards shaping a negative public attitude towards corruption.
First, there is a perception among the population that there have been no improvements when it comes to preventing and combating corruption, despite moderate albeit steady progress in reality. As a result, people lose hope for a better life, and distrust of the anticorruption reform and the government’s intentions to fight corruption is growing.
Second, everyday corruption in Ukraine is perceived as the best and sometimes only way to solve one’s own problems or meet one’s immediate needs. And even when the state or local governments offer an equally convenient, but completely legal alternative to established corrupt practices, the people do not always use it.
Third, there is a strong demand for justice among the population, transformed (hypertrophied) in Ukraine into a demand for massive criminal prosecution and punishment of high-ranking officials. The absence of a significant number of convictions involving imprisonment (or their insufficient publicity) creates the impression among citizens that the anticorruption reform is not achieving its goals.
Fourth, Ukraine has not developed a culture of proper openness and transparency of public institutions, constructive and mutually beneficial cooperation between the authorities and stakeholders (primarily the public), and a final understanding of the role of an official – to serve the Ukrainian people. Public servants often perceive the issue of interaction with the public as burdensome, and therefore carry out the relevant activities (public discussions, public consultations, and so forth) rather formally.

Evaluation of achievement of ESR
1.1.
ESR 1.2.1.1 The overall level of tolerance of corruption in Ukraine has decreased owing to the integration of anticorruption topics into educational curricula at all levels, which includes instilling in society a stable perception of corruption as a phenomenon that significantly slows down the socioeconomic development of the country, of corrupt officials as persons who make public administration ineffective, and the realization that dishonest practices, even when they look like a convenient opportunity to solve their issues in the short term, are always disadvantageous for individuals and society in the medium and long term
ESR 1.2.1.2 The overall level of tolerance of corruption in Ukraine has decreased owing to the creation of favorable conditions for professional development of educators and people working with the public, in particular in matters of academic integrity and instilling an attitude of intolerance of corruption in all its manifestations among students
ESR 1.2.1.3 The overall level of tolerance of corruption in Ukraine has decreased owing to the dissemination of information to the public about the negative consequences of corruption and corruption-related offenses (for society and the state, as well as for the perpetrators of such offenses), as well as about the importance of ensuring public control over the activities of executive authorities and local self-government bodies
ESR 1.2.1.4 The overall level of tolerance of corruption in Ukraine has decreased owing to the implementation of comprehensive measures aimed at instilling in public servants a perception of themselves as people serving the interests of the Ukrainian nation, as well as public trust in public servants as the key reason of why they hold their office
