The "Ubuntu" of natural resources: Bridging India and Africa for a Just Transition
This keynote champions the 'Ubuntu' of natural resources, bridging India’s scale with Africa’s mineral potential. How the 'Transforming for Good' model shifts the focus from extraction to local beneficiation, proving that a just transition is only possible when we empower communities and prioritise a sustainable, shared future for both continents. Ensuring the energy transition is a "Just Transition" that prioritises the prosperity of the people living above the minerals as much as the technology they fuel.
