exceptional plan that was set by the ARABOSAI General Secretariat to enhance the capacities of Arab
SAIs in dealing with repercussions of the COVID-19 pandemic. This plan included reconsidering
the training programs and workshops while taking into account the new needs of member SAIs in
response to the implications of the coronavirus outbreak. It also calls for the preparation of manuals
and working papers in order to support the member SAIs, in addition to directing interventions of
ARABOSAI in the field of auditing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) towards SDG 3, which
is related to the health sector. The exceptional plan was then adopted after being discussed by the
