The Natural Resource Governance Institute (NRGI) launched the newest edition of the Resource Governance Index (RGI) for Tanzania’s oil and gas and mining sectors on Wednesday, 14 July 2021. The launch featured a presentation of the assessment of Tanzania’s oil and gas, and mining sectors by NRGI Tanzania country lead Sophia Rwegellera and was moderated by Moses Kulaba, NRGI's East Africa manager.
As a flagship project of NRGI, the 2021 RGI is an evidence-based tool that allows stakeholders—such as governments, civil society actors, private companies and citizens—to understand how their countries perform in terms of resource governance. It is a freely available public data product that serves as a global benchmark, country and sector diagnostic tool, and a roadmap for policy and practice reform. The 2021 RGI is the latest edition and covers 18 countries across Africa, Latin America, Asia and the Middle East.
