At NRGI we envision a world where natural resources enable fair, prosperous and sustainable societies, instead of undermining them. We exist because decisions about how natural resources are governed determine the wellbeing of people in resource-rich countries, and of the planet.

Our mission is to support informed, inclusive decision-making about natural resources and the energy transition. We partner with reformers in government and civil society to design and implement just policies based on evidence and the priorities of citizens in resource-rich developing countries.

NRGI invites people of all identities, including those from marginalized groups, to come together in support of our mission. We strive for an NRGI where staff can be themselves at work, feel that they belong, and are equipped to succeed. Achieving meaningful diversity, equity and inclusion—together—is among our highest priorities.
