Description: The United States Embassy Dushanbe announces a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to help the Government of Tajikistan strengthen and systematize its reporting on beneficial ownership &#8211; a key recommendation from the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI). This project will support the Government of Tajikistan&#8217;s goal to sustain its EITI membership and increase the country&#8217;s fiscal transparency. The beneficial ownership report should give Tajik citizens a clear sense of who is profiting from the country&#8217;s natural resources, as well as where and how the natural resource revenues are collected. An NGO would be responsible for implementing the grant in coordination with the Ministry of Finance&#8217;s EITI Multi-Stakeholder Group (MSG). The main goal of the project is to strengthen and systematize government reporting on beneficial ownership in Tajikistan for implementation of requirement 2.5 of the EITI Standard.
