Hintergrundinformation


The INTOSAI-Donor Cooperation (Cooperation) is a strategic global partnership in the domain of public financial management aimed at enhancing the capacity of Supreme Audit Institutions (SAIs) in developing countries. The Cooperation was formed in 2009 by a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Donor Community and INTOSAI. The cooperation has been supported by the Austrian Development Cooperation (ADC) since its very beginning.

INTOSAI is an autonomous, independent, professional and nonpolitical organization consisting of 192 member SAIs. It is the recognized voice of SAIs. The Cooperation recognizes the important role of SAIs in strengthening accountability, transparency, good governance and the stewardship of public funds. As of 2016, twenty-three donors have joined the Cooperation.


ADC started the funding for the INTOSAI Secretariat of the INTOSAI Development Initiative in 2010 together with Ireland and Norway. The current funding represents a third phase (2016-2018) and is also supported by Ireland and Switzerland. This phase builds on the previous two phases that have helped inter alia to:

• identify SAI support needs, share knowledge and support capacity development

• develop strategic plans and development action plans for SAIs

• establish an SAI Performance Management Framework
