Abstract

World Resources Institute (WRI) is an environmental think tank that goes beyond research to find practical ways to protect the earth and improve people’s lives. This two-page brief contains information related to WRI’s work in Africa on access to information (ATI) and transparency models within the context of natural resource management. The ATI in Africa project aims to create an evidence-based approach and an understanding of ATI, where partners develop and implement specific strategies to advocate for strengthening ATI in relation to governance of natural resources.
