Mission to Support the Fight against Corruption and Impunity in Honduras (MACCIH)
The Mission to Support the Fight against Corruption and Impunity in Honduras (MACCIH) aims to improve the quality of the services provided by the Honduran justice system in the prevention and combat of corruption and impunity in the country.

After the social demonstrations triggered by the corruption scandal in the Honduran Institute of Social Security (IHSS) in march 2015, the Government of Honduras invited the GS/OAS to facilitate a process of national dialogue to build a mechanism to combat corruption and impunity in the country. Consequently, the GS/OAS met with the Government and with the different social, economic and political actors of the country in order to propose a set of strategic lines to establish a comprehensive mechanism to combat corruption and impunity in Honduras. Many of their recommendations were included in the final proposal which was annexed to the Agreement signed between the GS/OAS and the Government of Honduras on January 19, 2016 in Washington, DC.

In order to carry out its work the MACCIH will pursue four lines of action: (1) Preventing and Combating Corruption, (2) Criminal Justice System Reform, (3) Political-Electoral Reform and (4) Public Security. Additionally, it will undertake the following actions:
Select, advise, assess, and certify a group of Honduran prosecutors and judges who
     will be conducting investigations and prosecuting cases in order to
     dismantle corruption networks.
Establish a group consisting of judges, prosecutors and well regarded international
     experts of high international standing, who will provide support, technical advice,
     oversight and/or assessment to entities of the Honduran justice system.
Select and determine the corruption cases in which it will actively collaborate, and will
     notify the competent authorities.
Work jointly with civil society to build an observatory to monitor and assess progress
     of the Honduran judicial system.
Actively engage with the Honduran State to facilitate compliance with the
     Inter-American Convention against Corruption and the Follow-Up Mechanism for
     its Implementation (MESICIC).
Propose, through the Justice Studies Center of the Americas (JSCA), recommendations
     on strengthening the quality, effectiveness, and legitimacy of the Honduran
     criminal justice system.
Outline and implement a new normative frame.

Finally, the MACCIH will be headed by Juan Jiménez Mayor, former Prime Minister and former Minister of Justice of Peru and will be governed by the principles of independence, autonomy, professionalism, neutrality and transparency
