Promoting Effective Mineral Resource Governance

To realise the potential of its natural resource wealth, Africa must adopt more inclusive and sustainable approaches to mineral resource governance. UNU-INRA will: 

  • Make science-based policy recommendations to African governments on mineral resource governance that will support their economies against the backdrop of climate change
  • Research and recommend strategies to overcome the risks and harness the opportunities associated with the stranding of Africa’s hydrocarbon resources
  • Support the development of more inclusive, sustainable and gender-equitable approaches to artisanal and small-scale mining
