2022 Forum on Responsible Mineral Supply Chains
2nd May 2022 @ 8:00 am - 6th May 2022 @ 5:00 pm
The 15th Forum on Responsible Mineral Supply Chains will be held virtually on 2-6 May 2022 and will bring together representatives from government, business, and civil society. Plenary sessions will take place at 11h30-12h45 and 13h30-14.45 CET, while partner-led sessions will take place in the mornings and afternoons.
The Forum will provide the opportunity to review and discuss the implementation of the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas and other initiatives to enable responsible mineral production and sourcing. This year, the Forum will devote particular attention to critical minerals and the role of supply chain due diligence in enabling critical minerals to contribute to a just low-carbon transition. The Forum will also feature sessions on market access for artisanal and small-scale mining and the coherence of due diligence systems. Other sessions will feature technical discussions on using monitoring and evaluation to identify key systemic blockages to due diligence, using supply chain due diligence to address emerging risks, and those with growing awareness like environmental impacts in mining, and identifying conflict-affected and high-risk areas.
