Mining Zimbabwe Women's Month Edition- A special celebration of Zimbabwe Women in Mining Nyasha Gwata. Insightful conversation on :Is the Mining Industry ready for women's inclusion?

Over the years women have battled for a place in the mining Industry. Currently, women form an essential part of the Industry labour force. Mostly in Artisanal & Small Scale mining, though still not there yet, but it’s a good start in the right direction. Through us Tanzania Women in Mining and Mineral Industry (TWiMMI) and specifically President Hon. Samia Suluhu, we are on a mission to show the world that “mining is for everyone” Despite the bias and prejudices. Women can take charge and make remarkable impacts in the Industry. Whether in leadership or technical areas. Here's the chance to support Women and youth in this sector. Do you think women and youth in mining get enough recognition for the work they've been doing? #MineralValueAdditionTraining #WomeninMineralValueAddition

On this International Day of Women in Mining, we celebrate the incredible work performed by women in our industry worldwide. At Cementation, we are committed to treating every employee, and every stakeholder with respect and we fully agree with this year’s #IDWIM2024 theme “I am Mining and I Belong.” We acknowledge and celebrate the perseverance, leadership, talent, and enthusiasm of all who identify as women in the mining industry. They are critical players in the productivity and sustainability of our workforce and contribute to strengthening the future of mining globally.

It brings to light to the advancements achieved and the opportunities available for the industry to continue to become sustainable, diverse and inclusive. IDWIM has two primary objectives: - To celebrate the pioneers who paved the way and those we sadly lost, the women currently working in the mining sector and the future ones who will join the mining sector with a yearly global celebration. Everyone, everywhere, is invited. - To be a campaign that calls on industry and individuals to collectively and collaboratively work on actionable initiatives towards a more sustainable, diverse and inclusive mining industry. There are many ways for you, your company or organisation, and the industry at large to get involved. #mining #inernationaldayofwomeninmining #womeninmining #ten_recruitment #ten #tenjobs #10jobs

Today marks the International Day of Women in Mining, a day that challenges the status quo. Instead of celebrating our mere presence in the industry, let's applaud the rise in #professionalism, a direct result of the growing number of competent women contributing to the field. 🚀🚀 I am #mining & I #belong 2024 👩🏼🏭👩🏼💻 #WomenInMining #internationalday #IDWIM24 #womeninsteel IWiM

So...let's talk about the title of this article. Forget the content for now. The title "Do we really need more women in the boardroom? A bottom-up approach may provide more benefit for women" is a narrative that we must stop perpetuating. It's both, it's all! By 2022, women held 17.6% of director positions within top-500 listed mining companies, up from 4.9% in 2012. [See data from White & Case LLP, ARCH Emerging Markets Partners Limited and Women In Mining UK (WIM UK): https://lnkd.in/euZ6CmpF] On the panel, it was stated that one of the problems with women in mining groups is that they do not focus on women at grassroots, entry level. However, it is the women in mining groups, particularly in the Global South, that are taking on deep rooted systemic challenges that women and communities face of gender-transformation on the ground. Context is key! I encourage mining companies to stop making it an either/or issue and to make it a mining issue. Let's stop questioning whether we need more women and address the disparities in numbers--in number of women; in number of new entrants; in number of diverse thinking. #womeninmining #wimuk https://lnkd.in/eRvUDMpk

🌺 To promote greater female representation in the mining industry and foster the career advancement of women, GLY Consulting, led by Pauline Lu, took the initiative to organize and host the "Chinese Women in Mining" online event on March 8th, coinciding with International Women's Day. The event welcomed participants from China, Canada, and Australia. During the event, three distinguished guest speakers shared their valuable perspectives. Mrs. Guixia Ma, Founder and Chairman of Dekuang Jiuding Mining Technology Inc in China, Diana Hu, CEO of Cheetah Chrome Mine in South Africa, and Nancy Liu, Co-Founder and VP Operations of ThreeDify Nancy Liu in Canada, discussed the challenges, opportunities, and success factors for female professionals in the mining industry. They also provided insights into the characteristics of effective women leaders. The discussions spanned various topics, including the career prospects emerging from digital transformation and the applications of artificial intelligence in the mining sector. This event served as a platform to address and explore the multifaceted aspects of women's roles and contributions in the mining field. 🌷 #womeninmining #chineseculture #miningindustry #mining #miningtech #miningengineering #miningexploration #pdac2024 #internationalwomensday2024

Every woman in mining carries not just tools, but the hopes and dreams of generations. Like the precious resources we seek, the voices of women in mining are not just valuable beyond measure but also reshaping the industry. Diversity in mining isn’t just about equality, it’s about innovation. When we listen to all voices, we unearth new possibilities. Your voice matters. #WomenInMining #MiningIndustry #DiversityInMining #WomenEmpowerment #InnovationInMining #BreakingBarriers #STEMWomen #GenderEquality #MiningMatters #VoicesOfChange #SustainableMining #FemaleLeadership #IndustryInnovation #EmpowerHer #MiningCareers #WomenInSTEM #DiversityAndInclusion #MiningLife #WomenInTech #FutureOfMining

The Mining Industry boundaries often feel fixed. We are defying the odds by breaking stereotypes and building bridges that create lasting impact. For years, the mining sector has been perceived as a male-dominated arena. With Tanzania Women in Mining and Mineral Industry (TWiMMI) each initiative reshapes the narrative. Empowering women & youth to not only participate. But to lead and guide. From training to mentorships, we are building bridges across generations, geographies, and skill sets. Every training, every event, and every success story makes one thing clear: The mining industry is for everyone. _________________________________________________ PS: If you're not a registered member of TWiMMI, Join us in supporting this mission.
