The Intergovernmental Forum on Mining, Minerals, Metals and Sustainable Development’s (IGF) 17th Annual General Meeting (AGM) will be held on October 19–20, 2021. The event will be hosted virtually. All interested parties are invited to attend.
The theme for the 2021 AGM is Building Tomorrow Together: Mining for a Responsible and Inclusive Future.
Governments, companies, and mining communities face a variety of fluid challenges today. Amid the need for pandemic response and recovery, calls are growing for a transition towards metals-intensive, clean energy sources to combat climate change. New technologies are disrupting operations and posing new challenges for community engagement and local content policy makers. And assessing and managing the environmental and social impacts from mining–throughout the mining life cycle and for operations of all sizes–remains critical to maintaining trust in the sector.
As such, 2021 AGM sessions will focus on a variety of timely and important topics surrounding mining sector governance, including:
- Artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM)
- Community engagement
- Critical minerals
- Environmental management
- Environmental and social impact assessments (ESIA)
- Gender equality
- Local content
- Partnerships
- Taxation
- Technology
