CREFIAF -Developing Performance Audit Capacity at the 23 CREFIAF SAIs, Phase 2: 2014-2015
This concept note is a continuation of an initiative generated under the 2011GCP, to develop performance audit capability across 23 SAIs in CREFIAF, through a number of phases.
CREFIAF successfully applied for a one year grant from a Trust Fund administered by the African Development Bank, which awarded USD 433,864 in 2013 for the first phase. This application is to fund the remainder of the program.
During the first phase, a performance audit guide was developed based on ISSAI 3000 and CREFIAF champions were trained. Local performance audit workshops were also run as planned in ten countries. A planning meeting to plan pilot performance audits in the first five SAIs was conceived but not yet held due to unavailability of funds.
In the subsequent phases, for which further support is now requested, CREFIAF plans to organise further local workshops to train performance auditors in thirteen further SAIs that have not yet been targeted, hold planning meetings for pilot performance audits with two groups of five SAIs, and provide on-the-job support to pilot performance audits in ten SAIs.
A copy of the application is available to those interested in providing support. Please contactINTOSAI.Donor.Secretariat@idi.no
