The Chair of Integrity Initiatives International, Mark L. Wolf, is a Senior United States District Judge, and the former Chief Judge, of the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. Prior to his appointment in 1985, among other things, Judge Wolf served as a Special Assistant to the Attorney General of the United States after Watergate and as the Deputy United States Attorney for the District of Massachusetts. In 1984, he received the Attorney General's Distinguished Service Award for exceptional success in prosecuting public corruption in Massachusetts.

Judge Wolf has served as the Chair of the Committee of District Judges of the Judicial Conference of the United States, and on the Judicial Conference Committees on Criminal Law, the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, and Codes of Conduct. Among other honors, Judge Wolf has received Citations for Judicial Excellence from the Federal, Massachusetts, and Boston Bar Associations.

In a 2011 editorial, "The Judge Who Cracked the Bulger Case," The New York Times commended Judge Wolf for exposing the corrupt relationship between the Federal Bureau of Investigation and its Top Echelon Organized Crime informant James "Whitey" Bulger. The editorial stated that: "Judges are supposed to dispense justice but rarely root out crimes. As a result of Judge Wolf's courage and persistence, there were "high profile hearings in Congress on the F.B.I.'s Use of Murderers as Informants," an F.B.I. agent was sentenced to 10 years in prison, and "the government paid more than $100 million in claims to families of people murdered by informants shielded by the F.B.I."

A graduate of Yale College and the Harvard Law School, Judge Wolf is an Adjunct Lecturer in Public Policy at the Harvard Kennedy School, where he teaches a seminar on Combatting Corruption Internationally. In addition, Judge Wolf is a Senior Fellow of the Harvard Carr Center for Human Rights, a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, and a Distinguished Non-Resident Fellow of the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars. He has frequently spoken on the role of the judge in a democracy, human rights issues, and combatting corruption in foreign countries, including Russia, China, Turkey, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Romania, Hungary, Egypt, Cyprus, and Panama.

In 2014, Judge Wolf published a Brookings Institution article and a Washington Post Op-Ed piece advocating the creation of an International Anti-Corruption Court to combat grand corruption -- the abuse of public office for private gain by a nation's leaders. The proposal quickly gained the support of, among others, the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, Transparency International, Human Rights Watch, leading international prosecutors, and courageous young people throughout the world. In 2016, Judge Wolf, Justice Richard Goldstone of South Africa, and other colleagues created Integrity Initiatives International: to advocate for the creation of the International Anti-Corruption Court; to develop and strengthen other measures to combat grand corruption; and to forge a network of young people dedicated to combatting corruption in their own countries and around the world.

Emil Bolongaita is a Distinguished Service Professor of Public Policy and Management at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) and the head of CMU Australia. He teaches a course on Grand Corruption and Rule of Law. He received his PhD in Government and International Relations and a Masters in International Peace Studies from the University of Notre Dame and his Bachelor of Arts degree in Philosophy from Ateneo de Manila University.

As a student leader in college, Dr Bolongaita helped mobilize fellow students in a democratization movement against the dictatorship of Ferdinand Marcos, which culminated in the People Power revolution that ousted the dictator in 1986. In 1998, while an Assistant Professor of Public Policy at the National University of Singapore, he co-led the World Bank’s Global Distance Learning Project on Making National Anti-Corruption Policies and Programs in the Asia-Pacific More Effective. He co-edited and co-authored the project’s Challenging Corruption in Asia: Case Studies and a Framework for Action (World Bank 2002). In 2001, the US Agency for International Development (USAID) commissioned Dr Bolongaita to do a study of the Philippines’ anti-corruption institutions. Recommending that the Philippines adopt a deterrence-driven strategy to make corruption a high-risk and low-reward activity, he managed USAID Philippines Rule of Law Project to help the Ombudsman reorganize and train its investigators and prosecutors, which saw the organization increase its conviction rate from 6% in 2001 to about 35% in 2005.

In 2006, USAID engaged Dr Bolongaita to lead its Enhancing Government Effectiveness Project, which provided technical assistance on governance to government agencies in Yemen, Jordan, Morocco, the West Bank, Vietnam and Indonesia. In 2010, the Asian Development Bank appointed Dr Bolongaita as a Public Management Specialist and later as Unit Head of its Central Asia Regional Economic Cooperation Program. He led the team that designed ADB’s Strengthening Public Management project in Nepal, which aimed to reform the country’s public financial management system and anti-corruption institutions. He also developed a technical assistance project to support the institutionalization of Bhutan’s Anti-Corruption Commission. In 2010, Dr Bolongaita, with funding from the U4 Anti-Corruption Research Centre in Norway, conducted a comparative study of Indonesia’s Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) and the Philippines’ Ombudsman. This seminal study has shown how anti-corruption agencies can be effective in highly corrupt environments. In 2016, Dr Bolongaita conducted a pioneering study of the implementation of the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention and found that its implementation was more honored in the breach than in compliance, with only a handful of the 41 signatories effectively enforcing laws against foreign bribery, and therefore significantly contributing to grand corruption in many developing countries.
