Africa's critical minerals journey: From resource wealth to industrial powerhouse

This Leadership Circle will examine how Africa can advance beneficiation, develop integrated value chains, create  financing and policy conditions, put in place co-ownership models and  risk-sharing mechanisms needed to secure its place at the centre of the global critical minerals economy.
