About Us

The Australian National Audit Office (ANAO) is a specialist public sector practice providing a range of audit and assurance services to the Parliament and Commonwealth entities.

About Us

The Australian National Audit Office and the ACT Audit Office, sponsored by the Australasian Council of Auditors-General (ACAG), are hosting IMPACT 2023, the International Meeting of Performance Audit Critical Thinkers. The meeting is scheduled for 19–20 April 2023 and will be held in Canberra, Australia.

About IMPACT 2023

The overarching theme of IMPACT 2023 will be The Auditor of the Future with two sub themes: technology as a tool; and technology and the impact on the auditor. What are the top challenges faced by audit institutions as they adapt to this new technology-driven future? How can audit institutions make better use of big data, analytics, and artificial intelligence in its work? The conference will aim to explore the exponential rate at which technology is developing and its effect on the future of audit.

Another emerging area of focus is ethics in the delivery of government programs. Greater scrutiny of ethical frameworks looks beyond technical compliance and towards operating within the intent of established rules and frameworks, alongside community expectations of integrity.

We have an exciting two-day conference program featuring insights from audit experts and leaders of the Australian public sector as well as engaging keynote speakers. This includes special guest speaker, Li Cunxin, renowned dancer, artistic director, known for his bestselling autobiographical novel “Mao’s Last Dancer”.
