Announcing Africa REIK Hub 2013 Summer School

RWI has developed training courses and materials that meet the learning needs of civil society advocates, government officials, journalists and parliamentarians working toward improving the management of oil, gas and minerals. RWI's materials are tailored to the learning styles of adults, with a focus on learning through participants' own experiences, sustained debates and interaction. The training materials present balanced views and facilitate debates about the pros and cons of policy decisions.
Our materials include modules to help others prepare effective trainings on the management and oversight of oil, gas and mining, agendas and outlines from regional knowledge hub "core courses" on natural resource governance, and country-specific courses from RWI in-country trainings.
Offering training to journalists to improve their ability to report about oil, gas and minerals, lessons from the pilot phase in Ghana and Uganda between 2010 and 2012 have helped RWI expand and adapt this media training to the journalism and extractive contexts of other countries in Africa and elsewhere.
Through this module, participants will gain new knowledge about the purpose and benefits of EITI and its principles and criteria.
