Members from the office of the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) have provided oversight for funds used for development in Afghanistan.
On Aug. 12, a SIGAR team visited four schools and three roads in Afghanistan’s Nijrab valley. “The mission of SIGAR is to deploy forward with auditors and inspectors to ensure projects are built to standard and can be sustained,” said Guy Sands, assistant inspector general for inspections.
The American public is looking for transparency on how their tax dollars are being used, and SIGAR provides that by providing quarterly reports to Congress, and detecting any waste, fraud or abuse of the reconstruction funds.
