Driving sustainable investment in African Mining

Disruptive Debate 1

The Silent 'C' - Communities! Are they truly part of the net-zero mining discussion? 

  • Exploring the need to go beyond developing siloed decarbonisation pathways for mining's conventional approach to net-zero. 
  • How do we challenge the industry to take an innovative and future-forward approach whereby communities are at the heart of its development. 
  • How do we move beyond the standard discourse surrounding the Just Transition, and challenge mining companies to explore ideas around community resilience more broadly and with greater consideration. 
  • Ultimately, what is the business case for a net-zero strategy for the mining sector that is inclusive, just and resilient.
