@KeRafitoson @RJNglobal @jeanvanwetter @Mark_EITI picked up Minister Christian Yoka's (@CYoka_AFD) point on the energy transition: the EITI is not backing "any particular solution or pathway", but using #data to help countries "transition effectively, protect citizens & ensure they gain the benefits of transition." /3

🧵 The road to 2029

"The real test is whether information is being used, used to improve decisions, to strengthen accountability and to support reform." – New EITI Board Chair Maria van der Hoeven (@VanderHoeven_M) opened the closing plenary of #EITI2026. /1

Where should the EITI be by 2029?

@KeRafitoson of @RJNglobal hopes companies and governments will understand "that civil society is not an enemy. We are here to help."

For @jeanvanwetter, the EITI can be "the model for the reinvention of global cooperation".
