The International Secretariat with support from USAID had a regional forum to discuss the role of EITI in mitigating corruption risks in the extractive sector. The forum aimed to provide an overview of corruption risks in the extractive industries and to identify stages in the EI value chain that are particularly vulnerable to corruption drawing from country examples in the region. It aimed to further explain how the EITI could mitigate corruption through timely, regular, and standard disclosure of the EITI requirements.
