Award ceremony for the 2020 and 2022 ECA Awards for research on public-sector auditing

Realising European added value and strengthening accountability in the EU

CONFERENCE

Thursday

 

The 2020 and 2022 editions of the ECA Awards have focused on two topics of strategic interest, which lie at the heart of the ECA’s work and goals: “EU added value” (2020 ECA Awards topic), and the “Accountability gaps in the European Union” (2022 ECA Awards topic).

The conference has two objectives: to celebrate the award winners on their achievements, and to build on the winners’ research work, in order to analyse the implications of the current debate on EU added value and accountability for public auditors.

In the course of the event, we will pay tribute to the memory of two former ECA Members, in whose honour the 2020 and 2022 ECA Awards were organised:

  • Marcel Mart (1927-2019), the first ECA Member for Luxembourg and President of the ECA from 1984 to 1989 (2020 ECA Awards), and
  • João Figueiredo (1955-2021), who served as the ECA Member for Portugal from October 2016 until his death in June 2021 (2022 ECA Awards).
