The Sustainability in the Extractive Industries Conference was birthed in conjunction with the Deputy High Commission of Canada in October 2012, in Lagos. The Sustainability in the Extractive Industries (SITEI) Conference is an annual workshop, established and organised by CSR-in-Action, to bring together key stakeholders to discuss critical issues in the industries and stimulate meaningful exchange of ideas and best practices among key stakeholder groups and industry experts.
Over the years, the reach of the conference has continued to grow, and the conference is now a highly-anticipated event yearly. Annually, the conference is organised in partnership with key stakeholders in the industries, some of which include, The Nigeria Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (NEITI), Federal Ministry of Mines and Steel Development (FMMSD), and Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC).
