In Nigeria, NRGI partnered with BudgIT Foundation, Spaces for Change and Extractive 360 to train 23 participants from civil society, media, and communities— including women and youth—on the need for a just and inclusive transition, and to examine the social, environmental and economic impacts of the transition on their lives and livelihoods. [...] Pioneering research on national oil companies and the energy transition NRGI’s research on and engagement with national oil companies (NOCs) in the context of the energy transition has helped shape the eld and bridge a gap between the climate and energy communities, both nationally and globally. [...] GNPC and the government have credited the work of NRGI and the alliance of CSOs as a signicant inuence on the evolution of the approach and NRGI is providing technical assistance in the development of the energy transition plan. [...] It also contributed to greater and better-informed media coverage of the implications and signicance of one of the headline outcomes of COP28: the call on parties to contribute to “transitioning away from fossil fuels…” This outcome underscores the importance of relevant analysis and open dialogue to chart the future for low- and middle-income producers of oil, gas and coal. [...] In partnership with EITI Senegal, we led two workshops in October to enhance the capacities of journalists and government ocials to communicate in alignment with the EITI vision and mission and the EITI Standards 2023. We also enhanced the capacities of journalists and government ocials, parliamentarians, teachers, youth, women and students to take actions to strengthen transparency and accountabi.
