About US
Each country has an SAI whose job is to audit public funds, programmes, and compliance with local laws and regulations. IDI’s support strengthens Supreme Audit Institutions, and makes a difference in the lives of citizens because:
- Government audits are key components of effective public financial management and Good Governance.
- SAIs contribute to the quality of government engagement and better state-society relations through their work.
- SAIs are key stakeholders in supporting the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Our work is driven by an SAI’s needs and challenges, and our support is based on a sustainable and needs-based approach. We seek to empower SAIs by promoting gender-responsiveness and peer-to-peer cooperation as essential elements of long-term capacity development.
As an integral part of the INTOSAI community, IDI has a unique mandate to serve the needs of all developing country SAIs while not being tied to any country’s specific geographic or political interests. Our long experience with INTOSAI in providing capacity development sets us apart from other supporting organisations.
Strategies & Impact
We, the INTOSAI Development Initiative (IDI), support Supreme Audit Institutions (SAIs) in developing countries in sustainably enhancing their performance and capacities. We are part of the International Organisation of Supreme Audit Institutions (INTOSAI) and work together with INTOSAI Goal Committees, Regional Organisations, SAIs and other partners and stakeholders for independent, well-governed, professional and relevant SAIs.
