How can EITI practitioners use data to stimulate informed dialogue about extractive sector tax policies?
Tax administrations play a key role in ensuring that tax policies translate into effective revenue collection.
This event will provide information and ideas on how EITI practitioners can use data to stimulate informed dialogue about extractive sector tax policies, support tax administrations in revenue collection and prevent revenue loss.
The Board-approved summary data template is the EITI’s tool for collecting and publishing structured extractive sector data (an Excel file). The revised template draws on experience gained since the introduction of the summary data template in 2015 and on stakeholder consultations conducted in late 2018 and early 2019. The template came into force on the 1st of July, meaning that data published after this date uses the 2019 template.Topic: Anglophone Regional Training: Summary data 2.0

Worldwide, trust in government is under strain. A perceived lack of progress in tackling corruption, tax evasion and illicit financial flows are contributing to the rise of populism and economic nationalism. The impact of the oil, gas and mining industries is often a focal point of public concern and potential source of conflict.
This is the last Board meeting of the outgoing Board (2016-2019) before the Members' Meeting appoints a new Board
