RE-SOURCING Project

Funded under the EU’s Horizon 2020 Funding, MineHutte, together with 11 international institutions is part of the RE-SOURCING PROJECT – A Global Stakeholder Platform for Responsible Sourcing in Mineral Value Chains.

With a growing demand from civil society, consumers, investors and the mining sector for ESG driven strategies, the need for understanding, committing, implementing and evaluating Responsible Sourcing is increasing across the sector.

MineHutte, together with its consortium partners and stakeholders, is working towards drafting a globally accepted definition of Responsible Sourcing for mineral value chains.

We will also be drafting guidance documents for implementation and reporting of Responsible Sourcing by industry players over the next three years.

To find out more about the project, please contact us at info@minehutte.com

 

This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under Grant Agreement No. 869276
