Description
ROOM CC13
The OECD has begun deploying the Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) Framework for the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Mineral Supply Chains across tin, tungsten, and tantalum (3T) supply chains originating in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). This session will introduce a preliminary analysis from one of the Framework’s studies, examining the impact of a due diligence programme on levels of conflict in eastern DRC. Participants are invited to review and critique the study’s methodology and early findings, and to provide technical feedback that will help ensure the evaluation reflects realities on the ground and supports meaningful, evidence-based improvements. The session marks the first step of a process of stakeholder and peer review that will inform the final M&E study results.
