"Publicly Available Oil, Gas and Mining Agreements"

The Right to information, also referred to as freedom of information or access to information, establishes a general presumption that all information held by government should be accessible to the public and governments should establish mechanisms by which information should be accessed. Kenya and the rest of the East African have progressively enshrined this principle in their laws.

Extractives Baraza, in its attempt to ensure greater access to information, is currently tracking and sharing agreements signed between investors and governments. It is anticipated that this effort will incentivize participation in the extractives industry from an informed position.
