East & Central Africa Inter-Agency Finance Group

Group Purpose

This group was created in August 2011 to facilitate learning and to develop and share good practice in financial management and accountability of NGOs in East and Central Africa. The group has a Steering Committee of NGO professionals who are all living and working in East and Central Africa and who determine the membership criteria, and consult members about key prorities and activities.

Many of Mango's Register members (Finance professionals working in NGOs who get career advice and support from Mango) are also members of this group.

Anti-bribery

A key priority of the group is developing collective action by NGOs to prevent bribery and corruption.

Mango held an Anti-bribery workshop in Nairobi on 12 July 2011.  Download the report from here.  The Inter-agency Finance Group will try and coordinate the collective actions that NGOs committed to at this workshop.
