Abstract:
  • The report provides an overview of the IFRC’s internal audit and investigation activities during 2020, outlining how the organization adapted its assurance and integrity functions to the operational challenges posed by the COVID‑19 pandemic. It highlights the reprioritization of audit work toward high-risk areas, including the global COVID‑19 appeal and the ESSN programme in Turkey, and notes an overall increase in operational and delivery risks driven by the evolving context. It also summarizes investigation trends, including a rise in complaints—primarily related to fraud, corruption, HR issues, and misconduct—as well as enhancements made to strengthen investigation capacity, whistleblowing mechanisms, and stakeholder engagement. Throughout the year, the Office supported leadership in improving internal controls, risk management practices, and integrity systems to maintain accountability, transparency, and donor confidence.
