Abstract

This study explores the role of student-led integrity clubs as a proactive mechanism for preventing corruption in higher education, focusing on Uzbekistan and comparing practices in Finland, Singapore, Canada, Denmark, and South Korea [1]. Using a qualitative research design grounded in comparative policy analysis and review of Scopus and Web of Science literature, the study identifies challenges faced by Uzbek universities, including subjective grading, insufficient ethics education, plagiarism, and weak monitoring. The proposed model emphasizes transparency, accountability, and student participation. Additionally, a KPI-based reward system is introduced to strengthen motivation and institutionalize ethical behavior. These findings highlight student engagement as a crucial but underutilized component in building corruption-resistant academic environments.
