PWYP is a global membership-based coalition of civil society organisations in over fifty countries across the world.
Our vision is a world where all citizens benefit from their natural resources, today and tomorrow.
Our mission is to build a global movement of civil society organisations making oil, gas and mineral governance open, accountable, sustainable, equitable and responsive to all people.
We believe that citizens have a right to participate in the governance of their countries’ natural resources. We work to ensure that we, as citizens, have the information we need, and we champion and defend our right to participation so that natural resources are managed sustainably for the benefit of current and future generations. As the world grapples with the climate crisis we believe that the forthcoming energy transition must be just and equitable.
The global PWYP network is made up of more than 1,000 member organisations and over 50 national coalitions, including human rights, development, environmental and faith-based organisations.
The PWYP network is supported by a growing decentralised secretariat of around 20 people with a budget of around $4 million a year. The work of the Secretariat is overseen by our board and the global strategic direction of the PWYP network is led by our Global Council.
PWYP is looking for an Executive Director to lead the organisation as it celebrates its 20th anniversary and moves through to the second phase of implementing its 2025 strategy.
