2.4 STRUCTURE OF THE REPORT
This report took orientation from a threefold rationale:
1. Research into (further) evidence for the impact of the
EITI,
2. Guidance on how to implement Requirement 7 (‘Outcomes
and Impact’) of the EITI Standard,
3. Evaluating support to the EITI by Germany – at multilateral,
bilateral and sectoral levels.

In Chapter 6 macro-data of EITI countries in a panel
of 98 countries is modeled to identify global statistical
findings.
Perceptions of stakeholders from a convenience sampled
online survey are presented in Chapter 7.
Results from case studies in DR Congo and Mozambique
are discussed in Chapters 8 and 9, including
country-specific results models.
In addition, but separately from the overall report there
will be the following papers:
``
``
Abridged version in seven EITI languages (Arabic, English,
French, German, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish).
Country case studies of the Democratic Republic of
Congo (DRC) and Mozambique in extended versions of
the chapters of this study. They will be made available
to the two MSGs as working documents in French/Portuguese
for further use.
``
``
25 conclusions categorized according to the OECD DAC
criteria of relevance, effectiveness, impact, efficiency
and sustainability are drawn in Chapter 10.
Eight recommendations are issued for strategy, cooperation
and management in the closing Chapter 11.
``
``
Notes for implementation of Requirement 7 of the
EITI Standard,
GIZ guidance on how best to support the EITI at multilateral,
bilateral and sectoral levels.

from this overall report, emphasis was put on researching
(further) evidence for the impact of the EITI.
The report is structured as follows:

Chapter 3 outlines the methodology of the research, as
well as some of the constraints of that methodology.
The generic results model covering all 51 EITI countries
is constructed in Chapter 4.
Existing empirical research and EITI-specific documents
are analyzed on the literature review in Chapter
5.
