Historically Historically AfAfricricanan countries countries and people have not benefited and people have not benefited sufficiently from Africa’s sufficiently from Africa’s mineral wealthmineral wealth
Africa has changed greatly, politically, socially and economically over the last decades
The youth of today rightly have much higher expectations in terms of:
- Jobs and opportunities- Governance, and- Development
Governments, business and civil society all have a role in ensuring these expectations are realised
Blessing or curse?
It is up to us
African Mining Vision
African Mining Vision
Transparent, equitable and optimal
exploitation of mineral resources to
underpin broad-based sustainable
growth and socio-economic
development
Optimizing knowledge and benefits of finite
mineral resources at all levels of mining and
for all minerals;
Harnessing the potential of small scale mining to improve livelihoods and integration into the rural and national economy;
Fostering sustainable development principles
based on environmentally and socially
responsible mining, which is safe and includes
communities and all other stakeholders;
Building human and institutional capacities
towards a knowledge economy that supports
innovation, research and development;
Developing a diversified and globally
competitive African mineral industry which
contributes to broad economic and social
growth through the creation of economic
linkages;
Fostering a transparent and accountable
mineral sector in which resource rents are
optimized and utilized to promote broad
economic and social development;
Promoting good governance of the mineral sector in which communities and citizens participate in mineral assets and in which there is equity in the distribution of benefits
