The first meeting of the African Organization of Supreme Audit Institutions (AFROSAI) Regional Working Group on Environmental Auditing (RWGEA) was held in November 2000. AFROSAI is currently working with the AFROSAI-E (‘E’ for English-speaking African countries) Technical Workgroup on Environmental Auditing to establish a national policy identifying environmental management policies, mandate, and approach, and to carry out environmental auditing pilot studies.
