EITI - Making resources work for people

Lack of openness causes revenues from oil, gas and mining to disappear and leads to distrust. The EITI is an international standard for transparency in the extractive sector. It is backed by more than 40 of the largest international extractive companies, over 80 institutional investors, over 400 civil society oraganisations. The standard is now implemented in 26 resource rich countries around the globe.
