The Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI)

The Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI) is a global effort to promote openness and accountability in how countries manage revenues from natural resources like oil, gas, and minerals. It encourages governments, companies, and civil society to publish clear information about the payments made and received. By doing so, EITI aims to reduce corruption, ensure fair sharing of resource wealth, and support sustainable development. The initiative fosters trust and transparency, helping citizens understand how resource revenues influence their country's economy and development policies.
