Project:

Fiduciary Risk Assessment, Water and Sanitation Sector

Client: DFID (Uganda) and SIDA

Budget: 2 Million

Timeline: 1 Year

Summary:

Interface completed a Fiduciary Risk Assessment (FRA) for the overall Ugandan public financial management system and in particular for the water and sanitation sector. The purpose was to  strengthen public financial management and accountability and reduce the risk of public funds being misused through weak administration or corruption.

From key documentation reviews and sector-wide consultations, we constructed the historical and institutional context of the Ugandan public financial management system, highlighting the reforms in the water and sanitation sector  from the past decade. Our consultants drafted  key sections of the national and the water and sanitation FRA using Public Expenditure and Financial Accountability (PEFA) international  guidelines.
