Breaking down the myths about the mining industry…. It is a great time to be a part of it!! This statement says a lot about how I feel as well, she summed it up perfectly! “My message is that now more than ever is the time to belong to the mining industry. Our presence is crucial because we’re transforming this industry and bringing it closer to society. We can create an industry that attracts a new generation of young talent, both women and men, offering them a place where they can develop and feel proud to belong. Because the future of the mining industry doesn’t just depend on resources, it also depends on people. I am mining and I belong.” #WeAreWeir #IBelong #Mining #Careers

Empowering women in Africa’s mining industry! Discover the thoughts of Carla Clamp of BDO South Africa as she examines the challenges holding women back in the continent’s mining industry and why it is imperative to identify and remove such barriers. “There is a whole lot of untapped potential in women that could be miners that is currently not being assessed or utilised. Given the opportunity, these women could make a huge difference in the industry and can join the ranks of the several women change-makers that have been in the industry.” A the upcoming Investing in African Mining Indaba conference Clamp advised attendees and participants to keep this vital topic in mind throughout each discussion in this year’s agenda: “It is imperative that we maintain the focus of removing the barriers that keep women from shining and reaching their highest potential in an industry that has been historically male-dominated.” Discover the full interview at: https://lnkd.in/eERHV9Hu #MiningIndaba #WomenInMining #WomenEmpowerment #AfricaMining #WomenInBusiness

WOMEN'S WORK IN THE MINING Women are crucial players in the artisanal mining sector, involved in various stages, from panning to trading. Despite their active roles, they often face many barriers, especially in high-risk regions. Gender-blind approaches further amplify inequalities and often leave women's contributions unrecognized by existing laws.  Women's inclusion in ASM projects and policies is paramount to ensure sustainable development. They are vital stakeholders in resource governance, deserving meaningful consideration.
