COOPERATION

In executing its mandate, the TFAE often cooperates with other bodies in the field, either formally through Memorandums of Understanding (MoU) or in a less structured manner.

The MoU between the TFAE and the INTOSAI Development Initiative (IDI) was signed by the two parties in 2016 with the aim of providing the TF with access to the IDI’s e-learning platform, for the purposes of fulfilling the group’s mandate.

Other forms of cooperation with other bodies or groups may arise in less structured form.  For instance, other regional INTOSAI groups, national SAIs or external partners such as the OECD, the Council of Europe, national representations of Transparency International, national institutions or academic institutions have, at times, been involved in the TFAE’s activities.  Details on this cooperation are included in the annual reports submitted by the TFAE to the EUROSAI Governing Board (see “Reports” in the “Activities” section of this website).
