Balancing supply & security – are international mineral partnerships providing equal value to producers?
Are international mineral partnerships providing equal value to producers?
- Minerals have become a form of political capital on the global stage. What role does access to a secure mineral supply have?
- With a lack of contextual understanding & consultation of continental stakeholders, is the Western approach to mineral partnerships patronising to Africa? Does this push producers to alternate sources?
- Despite the promise of win-win relationships from alternative sources, how much value have these partnerships actually provided to the continent?
- How can prospective partners promote Africa’s development, through localisation and contribute to the integration of producer countries into the value chain?
