Recent activities

PWYP Norway is pressuring the government to progress in its EITI implementation, urging for the set-up of a multi-stakeholder working group. Little has been done by the government since its announcement to start implementing EITI in September 2007.

The coalition has also developed a 9-day civil society capacity building course to be delivered in collaboration with Petrad, 1 – 9 December, with funding from the Norwegian Oil for Development program. A call for applications will be sent out on 15th August and will be open to English speaking civil society organizations operating in OfD countries in Africa. The coalition is also organizing a media seminar for journalists in Oslo in September.
