The opportunity is also advertised on the IDI website

The IDI is a non-profit organisation that aims to enhance the institutional capacity of Supreme Audit Institutions in developing countries through needs-based, collaborative and sustainable development programmes in INTOSAI regions and groups of SAIs to meet the existing and emerging needs of stakeholders.

The IDI regards building the capacities of SAI staff as a fundamental and necessary ingredient for the attainment of increased transparency and greater accountability, which are globally accepted as vital to the achievement of good governance in the public sector. We believe that the SAIs can play an essential role in this task through their capacity of auditing at an effective level. The IDI’s mission is, therefore, to enhance the institutional capacities of the targeted SAIs through training, knowledge sharing and capacity building.

Within this scope of activity, the IDI works on a multilateral basis in cooperation with the training infrastructure in each of the seven INTOSAI regions, in order to deliver effective development programmes.
