We gladly welcome you to this initiative promoted by the Executive Secretariat of OLACEFS.
The pandemic that afflicts us is a challenge on a global scale to which the SAIs of Latin America and the Caribbean and OLACEFS must respond creatively and proactively, contributing to the proper use of public resources so that we can overcome this challenge together.
Under the logic of adaptation to the new times, we have created the COVID Blog, where weekly -every Thursday- we will have an entry talking about the value of control and its relationship with the pandemic. In this way, we make available a tool that strengthens international cooperation, allows us to share knowledge and foster new forms of participation in public opinion. We look forward to your contributions and weekly visits.
A hug, take care and as far as possible stay home.
