Description
ROOM CC13
Organised by Basel Institute on Governance, United Nations Interregional Crime and Justice Research Institute (UNICRI), UN Trade and Development (UNCTAD) and Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI)
This session is led by a partner organisation and may not reflect the views of the OECD.In September 2024, a UN-mandated panel issued guiding principles on critical energy transition minerals. UNCTAD is leading the implementation of actionable recommendation 2 (AR2), which calls for a “global traceability, transparency and accountability framework along the entire mineral value chain”. This partner session aims to generate concrete input on how to support integrity and anti-corruption efforts as part of follow-up on AR2 and ensure alignment with existing initiatives such as the OECD Due Diligence Guidance and EITI Standard.
This dialogue will invite representatives from international organizations, governments, civil society and the private sector to explore practical pathways, drawing on assessments by the Basel Institute on Governance in Bolivia, Indonesia and Ukraine, EITI due diligence tools on governance and corruption risks, and UNICRI’s report on crimes related to critical minerals in Southeast Asia.
Please note that this session will NOT be livestreamed.
Session available in ENGLISH only.
