Our role is to help developing countries, that is, national, local or regional governments, communities, civil society and so on in a context of decentralization. That is what's happening in Latin America and elsewhere. We are working with them and helping make sure that they are able to hold accountable companies from all over the world that are working in their country. It's being done within the framework of the sovereignty of their own country, their own regulations. Our goal is to work with the host country and the full cast of players.
