The final #Ex4Dev19 panel adresses the elephant in the room - is/can artisanal and small-scale mining be truly sustainable? ⛏ ♻️ 🌳 🌍

Remember the SDGs represent the worlds compressive plan if action ... and just four years on, according to a recent report, we are already lagging behind Caroline Ngonze keynote speech rings together #Ex4Dev19 discussions

“Which SDGs could have the most catalytic effect for ASM?” - keynote by Caroline Ngonze at #Ex4Dev19 Pact SurreyBusinessSchool Dr. James McQuilken EX4DEV

Keynote Caroline Ngonze asks the #ex4dev19 audience ‘if you had to pick 1 SDG for ASM that could make the biggest difference, which wouldn’t be?’ Her’s is SDG17 - partnerships

Sustainability implies we avoid the depletion of natural resources to maintain ecological balance, so in this context I don't think so. Suggested terminology change: Sustainable Mining -> Responsible Mining #EX4DEV19
