Canada
We note the remarks of the UN Representatives on the Africa Mining
Vision. As the Secretariat of the Intergovernmental Forum on Mining,
Minerals and Metals and Sustainable Development, which incidentally has
24 member countries in Africa, with Malawi currently acting as Chair,
Canada offers the following intervention.
The Forum is an important tool to support the implementation of the
Africa Mining Vision. The Forum, with a number of other sponsors, is
organizing 2 Learning Centres that will advance the understanding of
issues at the heart of the vision. The Centres take place May 4th in the
afternoon and on May 5th in the morning. We invite all those interested in advancing issues related to mining to attend.
