The global landscape for critical minerals like cobalt, copper, lithium, and gold is shifting dramatically.

According to the World Economic Forum, we've now regressed to a 134-year wait for gender equality. COVID-19 has reversed progress, while economic instability and weakening legal protections are undermining women's rights globally. Our Women's and Girls' Rights Index reveals concerning trends, with 24 countries showing marked deterioration over just the past five years. Currently, 33 nations fall into our "highest risk" category. Companies should seek to ensure that gender discrimination does not occur within their own operations, supply chains and communities given that gender discrimination is increasingly embedded in social norms, local culture and even national laws. The Business and Human Rights Navigator provides a useful starting point for understanding gender equality and how to carry out to due diligence around this issue: https://ow.ly/VVOQ50Ve81E This International Women's Day, we reaffirm our commitment to supporting organisations in their due diligence journey toward genuine gender equality. #iwd2025 #internationalwomensday #genderequality #womensrights
