The EUROSAI Working Group on Environmental Auditing (EUROSAI WGEA) was formally established by a resolution of the 4th EUROSAI Congress held in Paris in 1999. Previously this Group had functioned as the International Organisation of Supreme Audit Institutions (INTOSAI's) Regional European Working Group on Environmental Auditing, established in 1998 during the 16th INTOSAI Congress in Montevideo as a result of the "regionalisation" of the INTOSAI WGEA.
The EUROSAI WGEA acknowledges and supports achieving the goals of the INTOSAI WGEA. The EUROSAI WGEA and its members share a commitment to use the power of public sector audits to leave a positive legacy for future generations by improving the management of natural resources and the environment, and the health and prosperity of the people of Europe.
Through its activities, the EUROSAI WGEA aims to promote a spirit of cooperation based on integrity, open communication and professional excellence. This is achieved by pursuing the main strategic goals:
Currently, the EUROSAI WGEA has 45 members. Mr Marian Banaś, President of NIK, SAI Poland is the Chair of EUROSAI WGEA.
