Supreme Audit Institutions (SAIs) aim to make a difference in the lives of citizens. For SAIs operating in challenging contexts, reaching this lofty aim is not always obvious. In 2018 the INTOSAI Development Initiative (IDI), African Organisation of English-speaking Supreme Audit Institutions (AFROSAI-E), and African Organisation of French-speaking Supreme Audit Institutions (CREFIAF), came up with a groundbreaking model to support SAIs operating in challenging contexts.
