What the grant funds
The goal of this four-year activity (Transparency and Accountability in the Extractive Sector) is to increase transparency and accountability mechanisms in the mining, oil, and gas sectors for better revenue management and distribution. The proposed activity will focus on promoting transparency and accountability in the extractive sector as key factors of better revenues management and distribution, and sustainable development outcomes.
