The Intergovernmental Forum on Mining, Minerals, Metals and Sustainable Development (IGF) is hosting their 14th Annual General Meeting (AGM) October 15–19, 2018, at Palais des Nations in Geneva.
The AGM is a unique opportunity to engage with government officials from the IGF’s nearly 70 member nations and representatives from industry, civil society and academia.
This year's theme is Modern Mining Law and Policy: Accountable, Equitable and Innovative Approaches. However, we will also cover a wide range of other topics, including: tax base erosion and profit shifting; local content policies; gender toolkits and assessments; best practices in environmental and social impact assessments and permitting for large-scale mining; and strategic environmental assessments for artisanal and small-scale mining.
The IGF Secretariat would like to thank UNCTAD for hosting our 14th Annual General Meeting.
