Other Countries
Several countries have signalled their intent to implement the EITI, and are working to meet the four signup indicators. As soon as the EITI Board considers that a country has met the four first indicators, the country becomes a EITI Candidate country.
These are the four indicators that countries are required to meet in order to become a Candidate country:
- Has the government issued an unequivocal public statement of its intention to implement EITI?
- Has the government committed to work with civil society and companies on EITI implementation?
- Has the government appointed a senior individual to lead on EITI implementation?
- Has a fully costed Work Plan been published and made widely available, containing measurable targets, a timetable for implementation and an assessment of capacity constraints (government, private sector and civil society)?
For more information about becoming an EITI Candidate country, please consult the EITI Rules, or contact the the Secretariat.
