EXPLORING OUR

ENERGETIC PATHS

Sharing Stories

Documenting the many schemes that international energy firms use to advance controversial industrial-scale projects across the extractive energy industries.

Mapping Power

Examining together how financial markets and interlocking corporate partners facilitate extractive through capital flight and asset desertion across sectors and geographies.
