Internal Audit: Who we Are

The CGIAR Centers receive internal auditing services from a global network of internal audit professionals. Our network comprises:

  • full-time staff recruited both centrally, through the CGIAR Internal Auditing Unit, and through particular Centers;
  • specialist international and local short term consultants.

We work together, as one community of practice, to achieve international standards and ensure efficient and effective service to the Centers.

Our locations:

The CGIAR Internal Auditing Unit

As well as providing services to individual Centers, the CGIAR Internal Auditing Unit - as a CGIAR System Office unit - provides professional leadership to the network and internal audit services for CGIAR System-wide programs and initiatives; coordinates internal audit activities with other review activities and special initiatives within the System; and works closely with the other System Office units to promote good governance, risk management, internal control and accountability within the CGIAR System.

The Unit is headquartered at the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) in Los Baños, Philippines, where the IAU Director is located, but some of the staff are dispersed in other regions. The Interim Associate Director in Latin America is based in Washington DC, while the Interim Associate Director in Africa is hosted by the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) in Nairobi, Kenya. Another Associate Director is hosted by ICRISAT in Hyderabad, India. IAU staff, including Program Assistants, manage or assist audit work for a number of other Centers besides their host Centers.

The full time and part time staff of the Unit and their locations are shown below:
