Exposure 2024 | Critical Minerals, Critical Stakeholders

RFF Live | Critical Minerals, Critical Stakeholders: Engaging Local Communities in Mineral Resource Collaboration The growing demand for electric vehicles has increased the need to invest in critical mineral extraction and processing, yet mineral resources across the globe tend to be located in near proximity to Native lands and local, diverse communities who are often left out of decisionmaking processes. Without careful precautions, this increase in extraction could cause undue harm to local communities. To that end, effective and equitable engagement with local communities will be needed to reduce potential harms, compensate local communities for risks (including environmental, social, and economic), and reduce opposition delays. On June 6, Resources for the Future (RFF) hosted “Critical Minerals, Critical Stakeholders: Engaging Local Communities in Mineral Resource Collaboration,” as part of our Exposure 2024 Event Series on environmental justice. This webinar covered issues such as what effective, meaningful, and equitable engagement looks like; challenges that often emerge in the engagement process; how to deal with competing community interests; the role for compensation agreements and how to best structure these; and opportunities that can arise from community engagement. The webinar also covered policies that can be enacted to improve collaborative outcomes between communities and mining companies and discuss the role for research in this space.
