Cooperating with the Libyan Audit Bureau to follow up on the implementation of the 2030 Agenda
Objective
Enable the Libyan Audit Bureau to act as an oversight body in the process of preparing the VNR and following up on the implementation of the SDGs post-VNR.
Overview
During the preparation of the 2024 VNR, the Committee on Sustainable Development, established by the Libyan Ministry of Planning, expanded community participation to include stakeholders from civil society organizations, the private sector, representatives of young persons, women and persons with disabilities, members of parliament, and the High Council of State. It also involved audit institutions, specifically the Libyan Audit Bureau, the Administrative Control Authority and the Anti-Corruption Commission.
The Committee on Sustainable Development intensified coordination and cooperation with the Libyan Audit Bureau by conducting meetings to follow up on progress in VNR preparation. The Audit Bureau also reviewed and commented on the VNR report after it was submitted to the High-level Political Forum on Sustainable Development.
Through the SDG Oversight Committee, the Bureau conducts training activities on monitoring the SDGs, and raising awareness of the tools, models and manuals available to follow up on the SDGs, especially those developed by the International Organization of Supreme Audit Institutions (INTOSAI). The Audit Bureau also supports the efforts of the General Information Authority to build a national sustainable development indicators system.
