Across the world, corruption costs trillions of dollars that should have gone into social and environmental progress. Corruption steals from efforts to reduce poverty, to improve social services and to build schools, hospitals and roads. It leaves little room for democracy and systems of justice.

In this episode of Human Rights Magazine, Sofia Gobin explores the concern with corruption in Brazil.
