Description
The project, funded by the l'Agence Française de Développement (AFD) and the Fondation pour le logement des défavorisés (total budget: €1,125,000), aims to promote suitable housing through local construction practices based on home care, organizational and lifestyle patterns, and the management of common resources in harmony with the Mesoamerican landscape.
Purpose of the Mission
The team selected for the audit will be required to provide a professional and independent opinion on the financial report prepared by CRAterre for the expenditures incurred within the framework of the project. The audit team will be required to: (i) Comply with the checklist, (ii) Ensure the financial report conforms to the model required by the AFD, (iii) Verify the eligibility of the expenditures incurred during the project and reported in the financial report, and (iv) Assess compliance with the procedures listed in the Financing Agreement with the AFD and in the methodological guide for the AFD's support mechanism for civil society organizations (CSOs). (v) Certify the financial report to be submitted to the AFD.
Mission Implementation
The audit will be conducted in two phases: (i) a scoping meeting within one month of contract signing; (ii) the audit itself, which may be carried out in two stages, as preferred. The first stage will cover the expenditures of Tranche 1 (15 months), and the second will cover the remainder of the project.
