AFROSAI-E plays a facilitative role in empowering member Supreme Audit Institutions (SAIs) to optimise their audit performance by sharing information and supporting them in their capacity building interventions aimed at improved performance in the execution of their mandates. AFROSAI-E is a reputable regional organisation with a wide range of contacts and external stakeholders that provide encouragement, advice and support for its capacity building initiatives. These initiatives are ultimately designed to be of benefit to the citizens in English-speaking Africa. AFROSAI-E strives to lead by example and does so by applying a robust governance structure of oversight and reporting. AFROSAI-E is a voluntary association of its members and is ruled by its own Statutes and by the respective regulatory provisions. AFROSAI-E has a Governing Board, which is the supreme authority of AFROSAI-E and has powers and responsibilities as set out in the Statutes. The Governing Board of AFROSAI-E consists of the heads of member SAIs and each Auditor-General is assigned to serve on one of the oversight subcommittees. The Secretariat, through a needs identification process, assists the Governing Board in setting its five-year Corporate Plan. The Corporate Plan guides the annual work plan and budget, the outcomes of which are reported annually in an Integrated Annual Report and Activity Report.
