Description
PLENARY ROOM CC1
While the past 10 years of implementation of the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Mineral Supply Chains have seen the emergence of traceability and disclosure requirements, information flow remains a systemic challenge. The lack of reliable information on the material origin, geographical path, chain of custody, and physical transformation can hinder meaningful risk assessments, risk mitigation and remediation. Additionally, incomplete or unreliable due diligence information on suppliers’ practices undermines the credibility of due diligence claims.
This session will examine different facets of this challenge, including trust and commercial sensitivity, due diligence scheme credibility and under-utilisation of existing data sources.
Please note that this session will be livestreamed.
Session available in ENGLISH, FRENCH, SPANISH and CHINESE.
