Our Vision
Today the air we breathe, the water we drink and our very democracy are under increasing threat from corporate abuses. Corporations use industry trade associations, corporate lobbyists, political connections and campaign contributions to promote their narrow interests. Corporate Accountability International is working toward a world where major decisions affecting people and the environment are based on the public interest, not on maximizing corporate profits.
To reach this vision, corporations must obey the law, limit their political influence, and be more transparent about their activities.

Why We Challenge Corporate Abuse
Corporations often cause and get away with the serious harm they inflict on people and the environment around the world because of their political influence. To build a better world, regulators and policymakers must be free to protect people and the environment without business interference.
How We Expose Corporate Abuse
At Corporate Accountability International, we have always emphasized the importance of putting a spotlight on corporate abuse. By gathering and publishing information about the harmful practices we seek to end, we raise awareness about, and bring negative publicity to, our corporate targets.
How We Challenge Corporate Abuse
Corporate Accountability International's campaigns challenging corporate abuse engage targeted abusive corporations at every level: from coordinated, local grassroots actions to international policy negotiations on the biggest stage.
Our Allies In Challenging Corporate Abuse
We work with many important and effective ally organizations in the fight against corporate abuse.
