IDI Workshop with the regions
INTOSAI Regions are IDI partners in design and delivery of capacity development initiatives. Since 2014, the IDI and INTOSAI regions have been meeting on an annual basis to discuss and agree on topics of mutual interest. This also gives IDI an opportunity to collect Region’s thoughts on IDI portfolio of programmes, IDI service delivery approach and to hear from INTOSAI Regions about their specific needs to these programmes and other areas of regional interest.
1. IDI Planning & Prioritisation Meeting with INTOSAI Regions, 1 to 3 December 2014, Oslo- Norway
In view of the tremendous needs and demands for capacity development support, the IDI introduced a selection and prioritization process to help focus on the key areas of capacity development during its remaining strategic plan period. The IDI also launched a Global Survey in 2013 to collect information about the needs and priorities of SAIs.
As one of the cornerstones of the IDI service delivery model is a needs-based approach to capacity development, in 2014 IDI met with INTOSAI Regions were global priorities were discussed and matched with the regional needs. The main output of this meeting was the creation of the IDI's portfolio of capacity development programmes for the coming years.
17 Delegates from INTOSAI Regions/ Sub Regions/ committee attended the meeting, which was held in Oslo, Norway from 1 to 3 December 2014.
