The Friends’ Network is an initiative by the Friends of Fossil Fuel Subsidy Reform.

The Friends’ Network is an international network of government officials designed to share experience, knowledge, and encourage smooth reform of fossil fuel subsidies between peers in the format of closed, virtual roundtables under the Chatham House Rule. The participation is by invitation only basis, welcoming nominated officials involved in the process of subsidy reform or management of associated impacts.
