Round Table on Africa’s Critical Mineral Resources
Africa stands at a pivotal moment in the global shift towards a low-carbon future, driven by its abundance of critical minerals and its potential in green hydrogen fuel cell technology. Given that the International Energy Agency predicts a sixfold increase in critical mineral demand by 2040 to support the clean energy transition, Africa finds itself at the centre of strategic competition among global powers.
International IDEA, together with Southern Africa Resource Watch, held a high-level technical round table on Africa’s critical mineral resources in August 2024, to discuss these issues.
