Consultancy Opportunity: Opening Extractives Programme in Indonesia and the Philippines
Request for proposals.
Description
Opening Extractives (OE) is a programme jointly implemented by the Extractives Industry Transparency Initiative (EITI) and Open Ownership (OO) (collectively referred to as the “OE Team”) to enhance beneficial ownership transparency in the extractive sector. We are seeking an individual Consultant or a reputable firm, preferably based in Indonesia or the Philippines, to support the implementation of beneficial ownership transparency commitments in Indonesia and the Philippines. This will entail supporting the OE Team and the national EITI Multi-stakeholder Working Groups (MSG) with the implementation of the OE programme. The objective is to strengthen beneficial ownership (BO) transparency in Indonesia and the Philippines through technical assistance and capacity building to government ministries and other stakeholders, with a focus on BO data verification and the use of BO data in integrity checks of extractive companies applying for, holding or transferring licenses.

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.
