Critical for who – how producers can flip the script on critical minerals

  • As global powers vie to define and execute their own critical minerals strategies, how is Africa being positioned in these conversations?
  • How critical are critical minerals to Africa’s own energy security? Is the global energy transition leaving Africa behind?
  • Competition and collaboration – how can greater strategic diplomacy ensure partnerships yield long-term benefits for the continent without perpetuating dependency?
