The Solomon Islands Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (SIEITI) is a national multi-stakeholder initiative that promotes transparency and accountability in the management of Solomon Islands' natural resources.

Promoting Transparency

By bringing together government, companies, civil society and communities, SIEITI helps ensure that information about the extractive sector is publicly available, enabling citizens to participate in informed discussions about resource development, revenues, environmental management and community benefits.
