电视竞赛节目让廉洁奉公的官员一举成名
2017-05-22 09:47阅读：
在全球播放的电视节目“廉洁偶像”（
Integrity
Idol）让那些廉洁奉公的公职官员成为万人瞩目的明星。
这个节目和其他黄金时段的电视选秀节目不同的是，其评选标准不是唱歌跳舞的才艺表演，而是参选人身为公职官员为民服务的业绩。
康杜·穆萨（Kondo Moussa）是一名来自马里的2015年曼德拉华盛顿项目研习员（
Mandela
Washington Fellow），他在此期间在华盛顿的“问责实验室”（Accountability
Lab）工作时参与了“廉洁偶像”的摄制。他说，这个竞赛节目开启了“对腐败问题的全国性讨论，并显示出诚实、廉洁和个人责任感在公职服务中的重要性”。
这个节目的宗旨是通过褒奖那些廉洁奉公的官员，而不是谴责腐败官员，来最有力地铲除腐败。
“廉洁偶像”节目2014年在尼泊尔首播，2015年在利比里亚播出，随后又相继在尼日利亚、巴基斯坦和马里开播。
穆萨将这个节目介绍到马里，希望以此围绕如何发挥诚信和廉洁的领导作用展开一场全国性辩论。他说：“我们希望帮助年轻一代马里人齐心协力地共同推动他们所希望看到的变革。”

A TV contest makes officials famous for doing good
The globally broadcast TV show
Integrity Idol
makes rock stars out of public officials who have done
good.
The show works like other prime-time televised contests but selects
a winner not based on singing or dancing talent, but on how much he
or she has done as a public official to help people.
The contest creates “a national conversation about corruption and
shows the importance of honesty, integrity and personal
responsibility in public affairs,” said Kondo Moussa, who was
involved with
Integrity Idol while working
at the Accountability Lab in Washington as a 2015
Mandela
Washington Fellow from Mali.
The thinking behind the show is that the best way to stop
corruption is not by shaming, but by rewarding those doing the
right thing.
Integrity Idol began in Nepal in 2014, spread to
Liberia in 2015, and then moved on to Nigeria, Pakistan and
Mali.
Moussa brought the contest to Mali in hopes of building a national
conversation around how to lead with honesty and integrity. “We
want to help this younger generation of Malians come together and
collectively push for the change they want to see,” Moussa
said.
How the contest works
- Volunteers travel across their countries gathering nominations
from citizens. They host public forums on the need for
public officials with integrity.
- The nominees are narrowed down to a final five in each country
with the help of independent panels of experts.
- The five finalists are filmed and these episodes are shown on
national television and played on the radio for a week. Citizens
can vote for their favorites through SMS short-codes and through a
website.
- The winner in each country is crowned in a national ceremony in
the capital.
Military officer Issa Dia won the 2016 contest in Mali. Dia created
a community initiative called LAYIDU that provides children with
venues to learn and play sports together.
Integrity Idol said his “devotion to his job and
helping his community, as well as his honesty and hard work, make
Issa Dia a man of great integrity.”
