International Center for Not-for-Profit Law
Through civil society, individuals and groups can collectively raise their voices and take action to ensure that governments are held accountable in their use of natural resources. Civil society engagement is crucial for sustainable and equitable development. ICNL is committed to promoting civil society engagement through the EITI to ensure that natural resources deliver benefits for all citizens.
Engagement with the EITI
The International Center for Not-for-Profit Law (ICNL) has worked with EITI's partner Public What You Pay (PWYP) to provide input into the EITI Board’s 2020 review of the Validation process, particularly with respect to the assessment of Requirement 1.3 on civil society participation.
The International Center for Not-for-Profit Law has also provided advice and input relating to the environment for civil society engagement in EITI implementing and candidate countries. ICNL works with partners in EITI implementing countries. It also works on similar issues in countries which are not yet implementing the EITI Standard.
