On 5-7 May 2025 (09:30-16:00 CET), the OECD Forum on Responsible Mineral Supply Chains will convene global and local stakeholders to explore strategies for building more resilient, transparent and sustainable mineral supply chains. It will bridge the priorities of emerging economies and mining communities with key policy areas, including trade, finance, development and environmental sustainability.
Discussions will focus on responsible business practices in the minerals sector, covering critical topics such as supply chain transparency, due diligence and the role of commodity traders. Additional sessions will address ESG alignment, impact measurement and environmental due diligence, as well as spotlight artisanal and small-scale mining initiatives aimed at promoting responsible sourcing and formalization.
Participants can also engage through a local hub, an in-person roundtable connecting stakeholders to global sessions in Paris, fostering meaningful local dialogue within the broader international discussion.
