The Global Investor Commission on Mining 2030 - Ensuring Inclusion of Local Voices & Equitable Dist
The Global Investor Commission on Mining 2030 is a collaborative investor-led initiative seeking to define a vision for a socially and environmentally responsible mining sector overall by 2030, and to develop a consensus about the role of finance in realising this vision. The Commission is consulting with stakeholders on one of its seven workstreams: ‘Inclusion of local voices and sustained and equitable benefits locally and nationally’.
It seeks input from stakeholders on practices for fair and transparent inclusion of local voices in decision-making, the key gaps and barriers to application of good practice and the role of investors in promoting the application of good practice. These inputs will be used to inform the Commission’s work in developing a set of strategic actions for investors to promote good practice throughout the mining lifecycle.
