Mr. Jean Luc Mastaki, Director for @ECASROCA has urged stakeholders in the new regional project on sustainable mining to swiftly implement the initiative aimed at fostering socially responsible, value chains for energy transition minerals in Southern Africa.
#SADC #CriticalMinerals #EnergyTransition
"The energy transition allows the #SADC region to move towards beneficiation, technological upgrading & the development of competitive value chains in an environmentally sustainable, socially responsible manner aligned with climate ambitions," Mr. Jean Luc Mastaki.
A #SADC region mining project led by ECA will translate GDP into inclusive growth, strengthen linkages to local economies & expand durable, community-centered jobs & regional cooperation while meeting rising global demand for critical minerals, says @EuniceKamwendo@ECA_OFFICIAL
Today, ECA launched a new regional project supported by @iki_germany to ensure that SADC's critical minerals drive fair benefit-sharing, environmental protection, & green jobs across 6 countries. Follow for updates on the progress
