The assignment covers the preparation of Guyana’s 8th and 9th EITI Reports for Fiscal Years 2024 and 2025.
- The Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI) is a global standard for improving transparency and accountability in the oil, gas, and mining sectors.

Specifically, the IA shall:
- Produce a Scoping Study and Gap Analysis to inform MSG decisions on the scope of the 8th and 9th GYEITI Reports covering FY 2024 and FY 2025, including a comprehensive assessment of the fisheries sector, with the aim of making an evidence-based recommendation to the MSG on whether the fisheries sector should be included within the scope of reporting for these fiscal years.
- Produce the 8th and 9th GYEITI Reports as consolidated reports, organized by sector-based reporting, with self-contained sections for oil, gas, mining, forestry, and also fisheries should the MSG decide to include it.
- Prepare and submit the associated open data files covering FY 2024 and FY 2025.
- Prepare and submit standardized summary data templates for FY 2024 and FY 2025, in accordance with EITI reporting requirements, for submission to the EITI International Secretariat.
