IDI is delighted to announce the signature of a new five-year funding agreement between SECO and IDI. Building on the success of the previous phase of our cooperation, which focused on supporting the strategic management of Supreme Audit Institutions (SAIs), the new program has a broader scope that encompasses support for SAI governance and SAI independence for stronger public sector accountability and integrity.

SECO will provide a total of 6,9 million Swiss Francs towards the activities of IDI’s Well-Governed and Independence work streams in the period 2023-2028. The funding includes a component on SAI-level support in those areas, including by strengthening their link with civil society organisations. IDI is immensely grateful for SECO’s continued trust and support.
