We recognise the importance of stakeholder outreach, and we continue to strive to improve on this. It is not only important to produce high quality auditing standards and guidance, but we must support the dissemination of this material, to aid in enhancing audit quality. In the last year, the AUASB has engaged with stakeholders across the country via roundtables, at speaking engagements, national, regional, and international meetings. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we have championed the use of technology in order to maintain this engagement through the use of virtual meetings and webinars, and our reach across the AUASB network has continued to grow at a fast rate.

Our stakeholder outreach activities have made use of all available communication channels, in order to maximise the reach of our messages as well as our audience.
