The Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI), launched in 2002 and endorsed by the World Bank in 2003, has provided tangible governance improvements in resource-rich conflict-affected countries. It works with multiple stakeholders, a coalition of governments, companies, investors, international organizations, and civil society organizations (CSOs), to manage a process of publication and verification of company payments and government revenues from oil, gas, and mining. This smart lesson shares our experience implementing EITI in five prominent conflict countries and provides recommendations and lessons that may inform implementers of other World Bank programs in Fragile and conflict-affected countries. 2012-08-13T11:35:30Z 2012-08-13T11:35:30Z 2011-01 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2011/01/15876612/extractive-industries-transparency-initiative-combating-resource-curse-fragile-conflict-affected-countries http://hdl.handle.net/10986/10458 English IFC Smart Lessons Brief CC BY-NC-ND 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/igo/ World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research :: Brief Publications & Research Africa
