IG And Oag Win Award For Impactful Collaboration
March 27, 2026
The Inspectorate of Government (IG) and Office of the Auditor General (OAG) have been awarded the African Organisation of English-speaking Supreme Audit Institutions (AFROSAI-E) and the Eastern Africa Association of Anti-Corruption Authorities (EAAACA) Impactful Collaboration Award.
The award was presented at the Anti-Corruption Conference
2026 in Johannesburg, South Africa, in recognition of the two institutions’
effective collaboration that has set a new benchmark for excellence in
governance.
It was noted that the partnership transformed how Supreme
Audit Institutions (SAIs) and Anti-Corruption Agencies (ACAs) work together,
moving beyond routine compliance to innovation and impactful engagement. The
collaboration framework developed in Uganda has since influenced regional
thinking and contributed to shaping the SAI–ACA collaboration model across
Eastern Africa.
The model has become a reference point and source of
inspiration for other countries seeking to strengthen accountability systems
and combat corruption.
The collaboration also informed a joint study conducted
between 2023 and 2024 by AFROSAI-E and EAAACA across six East African
countries, aimed at identifying how partnerships between oversight institutions
can be effectively designed, implemented and sustained to enhance
accountability and the fight against corruption.
