Promoting civic space in Tanzania’s extractive sector” - IPIS - Tanzania

Enhancing civic participation, transparency and accountability in the extractive sector in order to improve its contribution to sustainable development and human right. The proposed intervention works towards the ultimate objective of turning the extractive sector into a driver of sustainable development and the fulfilment of human rights. HakiRasilimali and IPIS propose to do this by enhancing civil society capacity to engage in an informed and constructive manner on improving the transparency, accountability and inclusivity of extractive sector governance. Multiplier effects will be created by building bridges between civil society and communities on local, national and international levels. This serves to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of collective advocacy efforts by better aligning them with both the realities on the ground and lessons learned on all levels

- Enhancing civil society capacity to assess, monitor and advocate for improvements in the design and implementation of extractive sector policies and laws; - Improving alignment of collective CSO efforts to represent and protect vulnerable communities in open dialogue with government through enhanced coordination, communication and cooperation at and between the local, national and international level; - Improving citizen access to information and participation in local and national decision-making related to revenue and impact management of extractive operations.
