Great to speak to LSE Law School students on my ongoing research on trade in critical minerals. Several interesting questions, discussions and ideas o’er the two days. Many thanks to Giulia Claudia Leonelli and Oliver Hailes for the invitation (and a nerdy weekend, just how I like it) :)
"The race to net zero cannot trample over the poor" – António Guterres launches a new Panel on Critical Energy Transition Minerals to address issues of transparency, sustainability & human rights, and ensure a just transition for all. #ClimateAction un.org/en/climatechan…
Thanks Daniel Gay - v. useful paper by Sunayana Sasmal & UKTPO, rightly points to urgent need to consider S&DT for LDCs wrt CBAM. We need this across new green trade measures (e.g. EUDR) + clarity wrt support inc. AfT, tech transfer.. Plus more consideration of SIDS/SVEs
As the EU Critical Raw Materials Act enters into force today, let’s not forget that much is left to be seen & improved from an external policy perspective. Exciting to be working in this space UKTPO & with Colette van der Ven TULIP Consulting on some (soon out) projects. Stay tuned!
Critical Raw Materials (CRM): What are they? What do we use them for? And why have they become such an important part of our #trade policy discussions? Listen to Sunayana Sasmal, Tom Moerenhout & Laura Kelly discuss CRM with Chris Horseman 🎧👇on.soundcloud.com/ipu64ATHmLANBc…
