Wednesday, September 12th 2018 
Short course on the Application of the United Nations Framework Classification (UNFC) for Comprehensive Resource Management 
9:45 am – 5:00 pm

CONTENT:

The workshop will cover the basic principles and rules of application of United Nations Framework Classification for Resources (UNFC). UNFC provides a single framework to build global energy and mineral studies, analyze government policies, plan industrial processes and allocate capital efficiently. UNFC applies to minerals, petroleum, nuclear fuel resources, renewable energy resources, injection projects for geological storage of CO2, and anthropogenic resources. UNFC helps in the efficient channeling of capital investments to regions where they are required while satisfying the social and environmental requirements. UNFC ensures that investments bring positive outcomes for society and not just profits for the companies. The workshop will also consider application examples and case studies.
