Organised by Democratic Republic of the Congo
In the context of the global energy transition, the DRC has significant reserves of critical minerals, which are essential for the development of innovative high-tech industries, particularly those associated with the green economy.
As a major mining country in the heart of Africa, the DRC's minerals continue to be falsely tainted with the risk of a de facto embargo, even though most of its production comes from industrial exploitation carried out in compliance with national, regional and international norms and standards.
It is worth noting that, thanks to the political will of the DRC's leaders, considerable efforts are being made to channel artisanal mining products into a more responsible, cleaner and healthier supply chain.
With a view to changing the above-mentioned narrative, the DRC will use this platform as a framework for exchanges to, on the one hand, share the progress made by highlighting the strategic initiatives launched to meet the challenges and, on the other hand, gather from the stakeholders in the supply chain their observations and suggestions for a partnership in their respective best interests.
