SUMMARY:Essentials of Accrual IPSAS Adoption
DESCRIPTION:Workshop Overview \nAcross Africa\, governments are transitioning from cash to accrual-based accounting to strengthen fiscal transparency\, accountability\, and decision-making. This workshop is a practical\, hands-on capacity-building workshop designed to support public sector institutions in planning\, managing\, and implementing the transition from cash-based accounting to accrual IPSAS\, in line with IPSAS 33 – First-time Adoption of Accrual Basis IPSASs. \nIt is designed to build a shared understanding of the technical\, institutional\, systems\, and change-management dimensions of the accrual transition. Through expert-led sessions\, case studies\, and practical simulations\, participants will explore the full IPSAS adoption lifecycle – from readiness assessment and risk management to book-keeping practices and preparation of opening IPSAS-compliant balance sheets. \nThe Workshop emphasises real-world application\, focusing on addressing common implementation challenges governments face in the adoption process. \nDates:  11 – 13 March\, 2026 \nLocation: David Livingstone Hotel\, Livingstone\, Zambia \nParticipation Fee: $450 \nTo register: https://tinyurl.com/IPSASWorkshop. \nDownload The Training Concept Paper below: \nEnglish:Training Concept Paper – Essentials of Accrual IPSAS Adoption and Accounting \nFRENCH: Atelier sur les normes IPSAS_ Note Conceptuelle

SUMMARY:AAAG Webinar Series: Rebuilding Trust in Public Finance: Accountability as Africa’s Growth Accelerator
DESCRIPTION:As African governments confront rising citizen expectations\, fiscal pressures\, and governance scrutiny\, restoring trust in public finance has become a strategic imperative. With the advent of social media\, transparency and accountability are no longer compliance exercises; they are foundational drivers of sustainable growth\, service delivery\, and social cohesion. \nThis AAAG webinar will examine how transparency and accountability\, when embedded across the public financial management cycle\, can serve as powerful accelerators of growth rather than mere compliance obligations. Drawing on country experiences and global best practice\, the session will explore how robust value-for-money (VfM) audits\, strong internal controls\, and open budgeting frameworks can restore confidence in how public resources are raised\, managed\, and spent. \nParticipants will gain practical insights into how accountability reforms translate into better service delivery outcomes\, reduced wastage\, and stronger citizen trust. The webinar will also spotlight the strategic leadership role of the Accountant-General as the custodian of fiscal integrity and the institutional anchor for rebuilding trust in public finance systems across Africa. \nKey Focus Areas \n\nThe trust deficit in public finance and its economic consequences\nStrengthening VfM audits to ensure public spending delivers results\nInternal controls as a foundation for transparency and accountability\nOpen budgeting and citizen-centric financial reporting\nThe Accountant-General’s leadership role in trust restoration\n\nWho Should Attend \n\nAccountants General and Deputy Accountants General\nSenior PFM and Treasury Officials\nPublic Sector Accountants\nSupreme Audit Institutions\nDevelopment Partners and Governance Practitioners\n\nJoin us to explore actionable strategies to build Trust in Public Finance across Africa. \n📅 Date: 27th March 2026 \n🕘 Time: 14:30 – 16:30 CAT \n📍 Platform: Teams \nREGISTRATION: https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/3fb27dcb-9c13-4bec-b3c1-2e20958ad5bf@80be4b3d-f211-4cd9-9104-68537f6fdfb3 \nWe look forward to your participation \nWEBINAR PROGRAM \n\n\n\nTIME\nACTIVITY\nRESPONSIBLE\n\n\n14:30-14:33\nWelcome remarks\nMr. Fredrick Riaga \nCEO\, AAAG\n\n\n14:33-14:40\nOpening Remarks\nTBC\n\n\n14:40-15:10\nPresentation\nTBC\n\n\n15:10-15:35\nCountry Experience: TBC\nTBC\n\n\n15:35-16:00\nCountry Experience: TBC\nTBC\n\n\n16:00-16:30\nQuestions and Answers\nMr. Bruce Mwewa \nTechnical Director\, AAAG\n\n\n\n  \n
