The aim of the seminar was to foster an anti-corruption culture among students, promote the values of honesty, fairness, and responsibility, and raise awareness of the importance of academic integrity in the educational process.

During the seminar, participants discussed corruption prevention, its negative impact on society and the education system, and the importance of adhering to academic integrity principles. Particular attention was paid to preventing plagiarism, completing academic assignments independently, and taking responsibility for one's actions and academic achievements.

The seminar was aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 4 – Quality Education and SDG 16 – Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions.

Such initiatives contribute to improving students’ legal awareness, strengthening the values of honesty and fairness, promoting academic integrity, and fostering a university environment free from corruption.
