Description
Organised by : Fair Cobalt Alliance, Responsible Cobalt Initiative, Cobalt Institute
As demand for cobalt increases, there will be a growing need to find ways to tackle the risks present in the cobalt value chain, with a specific focus on the Democratic Republic of Congo where over 70% of cobalt is mined, about 10-20% of which through artisanal and small-scale mining. Elements of response include taking a multi-stakeholder approach, focusing on achieving impact and enhanced transparency.
In this session, we will explore how multi-stakeholder approaches can add value and strengthen individual company due diligence processes, and lessons learned from existing approaches such as the Fair Cobalt Alliance.
