The Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative is a major international effort to disclose information about extractive activities. Having an explicit Theory of Change could help it to improve natural resource governance and developmental outcomes. The design of an appropriate Theory of Change model should reflect national contexts and objectives, strengthen and target better information disclosure, and build capacity among the public and civil society.
