The Tunisian Coalition for Transparency in Energy and Mines is a PWYP affiliated coalition which launched officially in March 2015.

It includes 16 civil society organisations united in their goal of a transparent extractive sector – one of their key goals is for the Tunisian government to adopt the EITI. Their aim is to achieve sustainable development through proper use of their natural resources.

Their work has also focused on pushing the government to transpose the articles of the newly adopted Tunisian constitution (related to the good governance of natural resources) into laws that guarantee more transparency and accountability within the extractive sector.
