Regional Workshop: Extractive Industries

This year the Extractive Industries workshop will take place from 27 June to 1 July in Pretoria, South Africa. We will implement the workshop in partnership with SAI Norway and the INTOSAI Working Group on Extractive Industries (WGEI). The theme for the workshop is: Role of SAIs to support governments in transitioning to sustainable, low carbon and equitable energy systems.

Renewable energy transition promises to deliver vast socio-economic benefits to countries across Africa, improving energy access, creating jobs, and boosting energy security. African countries have an opportunity to bypass fossil fuel technologies to a more sustainable, climate-friendly power strategies, aligned with the Paris Climate Accords and low-carbon growth. During the workshop we will focus on supplying participants with more information on this topic and there will be ample opportunity for dialogue and knowledge sharing.
