About Publish What You Pay
Publish What You Pay (PWYP) is the world’s largest network of civil society organisations campaigning for open and accountable oil, gas and mining sectors. With more than 1000 member organisations in over 50 countries, our strength lies in our ability to coordinate action nationally and globally, maximising our collective voice to push for policy and behaviour change in governments and businesses.
Our global strategy, Vision 2025, sets out our people-centred agenda for the extractive sector. Vision 2025 builds on our success in securing unprecedented levels of transparency from the extractive industries while placing more emphasis on making sure that transparency leads to broader changes that improve the lives of citizens in resource rich countries. It prioritises greater citizen participation in the governance of oil, gas and mineral extraction so that people can exercise their right to take part in decisions that affect them and can hold the powerful to account. It also aims to connect to international efforts to curb poverty and promote sustainable development, redress inequality and prevent climate disaster.
We are a growing, fun and dynamic team spread across ten countries and we work with some of the most courageous anti-corruption and human rights activists in the world. We offer an amazing working environment with a focus on personal development.
