Description

The Opening Extractives Programme (OE) - a programme launched by the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI) and Open Ownership to enhance beneficial ownership transparency -  is seeking a consultant based in Dakar to support the OE team in implementing beneficial ownership transparency commitments under the OE Programme in Senegal. This will entail supporting the Ministry of Justice, EITI’s multi-stakeholder group in Senegal, the national secretariat, and other key government agencies in facilitating policy discussions and improving disclosures of beneficial ownership. The objective is to support the stakeholders in strengthening their capacity to collect, disclose and analyse beneficial ownership data and to promote the Senegalese experience for the benefit of other countries in the region.

About EITI

We believe that a country’s natural resources belong to its citizens. Our mission is to promote understanding of natural resource management, strengthen public and corporate governance and accountability, and provide the data to inform policymaking and multi-stakeholder dialogue in the extractive sector. By becoming a member of the Extractives Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI), countries commit to disclose information along the extractive industry value chain – from how extraction rights are awarded, to how revenues make their way through government and how they benefit the public. Through participation in the EITI, more than 50 countries have agreed to a common set of rules governing what has to be disclosed and when – the EITI Standard. In each country that has joined the EITI, a multi-stakeholder group, composed of government, companies and civil society, supports implementation of the EITI Standard.
