Vinny has trained corruption fighters in the Republics of Haiti, Liberia, and Tanzania. He has advised legislative members of the Republic of Georgia and lectured on corruption to Ambassadors and dignitaries from more than 75 countries. The “Vincent Green Award for Outstanding Strategic Initiatives” was established upon his departure from DOI.

Outside of his direct corruption-fighting efforts, Vinny has published a book of Short Stories and Poetry entitled, A View from My Bay.
