Abstract:
  • This report provides an overview of the IFRC Office of Internal Audit and Investigations’ work during 2021, a year marked by ongoing COVID‑19 operations, large‑scale cash assistance through the ESSN programme, and multiple complex humanitarian responses. It outlines how the Office strengthened governance, risk management and integrity systems across the Federation through expanded audit coverage, renewed field‑based reviews, and an enhanced focus on corporate risk areas amid organisational adaptation to remote work and increased operational demands. The document highlights major trends identified in audit and investigation activities, including rising financial, operational and integrity risks, and a significant increase in reported allegations following the launch of the Integrity Line whistleblowing platform. It also details improvements in investigation capacity, record case closures, and continued support to leadership on safeguarding and fraud prevention, underscoring the Office’s role in promoting transparency, accountability and trust across the IFRC network.
