Critical Minerals, Decarbonisation, Infrastructure and Geopolitics: Is Africa on the Right Path to

A scramble for Africa’s vast mineral wealth is underway. From coal to cobalt, developed and developing economies alike are competing for the continent’s critical minerals to feed their economies. Some African countries have built sophisticated economies around their mining industry, while others are subject to the “resource curse” - and not everyone affected by the mining ecosystem ends up benefiting from it.

Join us as we debate whether Africa is on a path to better maximise the value of its mineral wealth, and what more should or could be done; and who really benefits?
