PWYP was launched in June 2002 by a small coalition of mostly UK-based NGOs (including Global Witness, CAFOD, CARE, Save the Children UK and Open Society Institute). Eight years on, PWYP has become a global movement of civil society organisations, with more than 600 members in almost 60 countries. Our common goal is to campaign for greater transparency and accountability in the extractive industries (oil, gas and mining).PWYP believes that transparency should be pursued through a number of diverse, but complementary mechanisms – at national, regional and at international levels. PWYP members worldwide are championing greater transparency on a number of fronts.

Coalition work typically begins at national level – its mandate is determined by issues that emerge on a national context basis. Coalitions at the national level overlap on common advocacy targets, exchanges, and capacity-building opportunities within and across regions. Different activities may also operate sub-nationally based on different issues areas within regions of a country, with activities centrally coordinated.
