Would you like to present a topic? Your input is more than welcome in this or one of our future sessions. Please get in touch with a short description of your idea at wgeppp-intosai@efk.admin.ch
WGEPPP Forum 2022
After overcoming the COVID-19 crisis, it was time to meet again – face to face – to exchange good practices and learn new techniques! The WGEPPP Forum took place in Bern, Switzerland, from 26 to 28 September 2022.
For more information about the Forum, please see the 2022 Meeting page: 2022 WGEPPP Meeting
Change of Chairmanship
The French SAI has chaired the WGEPPP for many years. The achievements are numerous and the evaluation of public policies and programmes is more than ever a topical issue and an area of expertise within our SAIs. Since March 2022, the Swiss Federal Audit Office (SFAO) leads the WGEPPP. This handover was formalised in Paris at the international conference on the future of Europe in the presence of Mrs Margit Kraker, President of the SAI of Austria and Secretary General of INTOSAI.
