Design and Manage a Datathon

Request for Proposals

Fecha límite

Antecedentes

The Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI), with the support from USAID and in collaboration with Carbon Tracker and NRGI, is seeking a competent and credible firm or individual to design and manage a Datathon in the first quarter of 2022 to model the use of data and develop tools for using data to address challenges related to the energy transition. 

The overall purpose of the planned datathon is to encourage innovation in the use of EITI and extractives industry data to contribute to policy and public debate on energy transition pathways. Specifically, the planned event responds to the potential for EITI multi-stakeholder groups – who are familiar with both the data and broader context of the sector – to prompt governments to use extractives data in energy transition planning. It also responds to the potential for civil society, the media and other parties to use EITI and extractive sector data to ensure that national debate on transition pathways is grounded in evidence.

The consultant must be from a reputable company/one or more individual(s) with a proven reputation, perceived by the EITI International Secretariat to be credible, trustworthy, experienced and technically competent. Proposals should be submitted following the guidelines noted in the attached terms of reference. 

A consultant will be selected following a quality- and cost-based selection procedure.

Acerca del EITI

Creemos que los recursos naturales de los países pertenecen a sus ciudadanos. Nuestra misión consiste en promover el conocimiento sobre la gestión de los recursos naturales, fortalecer la gobernanza y la rendición de cuentas en los ámbitos público y corporativo, y aportar datos que sirvan de sustento para la creación de políticas y el diálogo multipartícipe en el sector extractivo. Al convertirse en miembros del EITI, los países se comprometen a divulgar información a lo largo de la cadena de valor de las industrias extractivas, desde la forma en que se otorgan los derechos sobre actividades extractivas, hasta el modo en que los ingresos llegan a manos de los gobiernos y cómo benefician a la población. A través de la participación en el EITI, más de 50 países han acordado a respetar un conjunto de normas comunes que determinan qué debe divulgarse y cuándo: en otras palabras, el Estándar EITI. En cada uno de los países que se ha unido al EITI hay un grupo multipartícipe, conformado por el gobierno, empresas y la sociedad civil, que colabora con la implementación del Estándar EITI.
