Dear participants,
On behalf of SAI Peru, I am pleased to welcome you all to the Annual Capacity Building Committee Meeting that will be held in Lima from September 9th to 11th.
Lima has a particular relevance to our Organization because in October 1977, the Superior Audit Institutions of 95 countries signed the Lima Declaration. Considered as the Magna Carta of public audit, it defines the criteria for audit ruling and independence of SAI, but also focuses on the importance of capacity building of INTOSAI members, and the exchange of ideas and experiences among them to achieve their goals.
This meeting in particular, takes place in a context were SAI Independence and capacity building is part of the discussion for the World Development Agenda post 2015,as key factors to improve the public accounting systems and sustainable growth. The annual CBC meeting offers a unique opportunity to discuss and analyze the capacity building needs of SAI and Regional Groups, and conduct their efforts to make a real difference in the lives of citizens.
For the above mentioned, I feel honored to welcome you to our country and I foresee a fruitful meeting. It is my desire that all of you enjoy our culture, food and people.
