SUMMARY:High-Level Joint Conference on Governance\, Critical Minerals and Conflict in Africa
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n\n\n\n27th – 29th July\, 2026\nKempinski Hotel Gold Coast City\nAccra\, Ghana \n\n\n\nAfrica stands at the centre of the global transition to green energy and digital technologies\, with the continent holding some of the world’s most important reserves of critical minerals. While these resources present significant opportunities for economic growth\, industrial development and regional integration\, they also raise important questions about governance\, peace\, accountability\, community rights and equitable development. \nAs global demand for critical minerals grows\, the choices made today will determine whether this opportunity delivers shared prosperity and sustainable development or deepens existing inequalities and conflict. \nHosted by the Open Society Foundations\, the High-Level Conference on Governance\, Critical Minerals and Conflict in Africa will bring together policymakers\, civil society leaders\, researchers\, private sector representatives\, peacebuilders and development partners to examine the links between critical minerals\, governance and conflict\, while exploring opportunities for greater value addition\, community participation\, regional cooperation and African-led solutions. \nBy convening diverse stakeholders\, the conference aims to advance a shared vision for people-centred\, rights-based and inclusive mineral governance\, while providing a platform for African voices to help shape regional and global conversations on the future of the sector. \nYour expertise would be highly valuable in shaping a people-centred agenda. OSF will cover economy airfare\, accommodation\, local transport and conference costs. \nPlease confirm if you are interested and available to attend the conference. Programme and logistical details will follow upon confirmation of attendance. \nREGISTER \n\n                    Event Registration FormFirst NameLast NameEmail AddressOrganizationDesignationID Number/Passport NumberDate Expiry of the Passport *Upload a copy of passport (.jpg | .jpeg | .png | .pdf)Choose File Date of BirthPlace of BirthSelect CountryAfghanistanAland IslandsAlbaniaAlgeriaAmerican SamoaAndorraAngolaAnguillaAntarcticaAntigua and BarbudaArgentinaArmeniaArubaAustraliaAustriaAzerbaijanBahamasBahrainBangladeshBarbadosBelarusBelgiumBelizeBeninBermudaBhutanBoliviaBonaire\, Saint Eustatius and SabaBosnia and HerzegovinaBotswanaBouvet IslandBrazilBritish Indian Ocean TerritoryBritish Virgin IslandsBruneiBulgariaBurkina FasoBurundiCabo VerdeCambodiaCameroonCanadaCayman IslandsCentral African RepublicChadChileChinaChristmas IslandCocos (Keeling) IslandsColombiaComorosCook IslandsCosta RicaCroatiaCubaCuraçaoCyprusCzech RepublicDemocratic Republic of the Congo (Kinshasa)DenmarkDjiboutiDominicaDominican RepublicEcuadorEgyptEl SalvadorEquatorial GuineaEritreaEstoniaEswatiniEthiopiaFalkland IslandsFaroe IslandsFijiFinlandFranceFrench GuianaFrench PolynesiaFrench Southern TerritoriesGabonGambiaGeorgiaGermanyGhanaGibraltarGreeceGreenlandGrenadaGuadeloupeGuamGuatemalaGuernseyGuineaGuinea-BissauGuyanaHaitiHeard Island and McDonald IslandsHondurasHong KongHungaryIcelandIndiaIndonesiaIranIraqIrelandIsle of ManIsraelItalyIvory CoastJamaicaJapanJerseyJordanKazakhstanKenyaKiribatiKosovoKuwaitKyrgyzstanLaosLatviaLebanonLesothoLiberiaLibyaLiechtensteinLithuaniaLuxembourgMacao S.A.R.\, ChinaMadagascarMalawiMalaysiaMaldivesMaliMaltaMarshall IslandsMartiniqueMauritaniaMauritiusMayotteMexicoMicronesiaMoldovaMonacoMongoliaMontenegroMontserratMoroccoMozambiqueMyanmarNamibiaNauruNepalNetherlandsNew CaledoniaNew ZealandNicaraguaNigerNigeriaNiueNorfolk IslandNorth KoreaNorth MacedoniaNorthern Mariana IslandsNorwayOmanPakistanPalauPalestinian TerritoryPanamaPapua New GuineaParaguayPeruPhilippinesPitcairnPolandPortugalPuerto RicoQatarRepublic of the Congo (Brazzaville)RomaniaRussiaRwandaRéunionSaint BarthélemySaint HelenaSaint Kitts and NevisSaint LuciaSaint Martin (Dutch part)Saint Martin (French part)Saint Pierre and MiquelonSaint Vincent and the GrenadinesSamoaSan MarinoSao Tome and PrincipeSaudi ArabiaSenegalSerbiaSeychellesSierra LeoneSingaporeSlovakiaSloveniaSolomon IslandsSomaliaSouth AfricaSouth Georgia/Sandwich IslandsSouth KoreaSouth SudanSpainSri LankaSudanSurinameSvalbard and Jan MayenSwedenSwitzerlandSyriaTaiwanTajikistanTanzaniaThailandTimor-LesteTogoTokelauTongaTrinidad and TobagoTunisiaTurkmenistanTurks and Caicos IslandsTuvaluTürkiyeUgandaUkraineUnited Arab EmiratesUnited Kingdom (UK)United States (US)United States (US) Minor Outlying IslandsUnited States (US) Virgin IslandsUruguayUzbekistanVanuatuVaticanVenezuelaVietnamWallis and FutunaWestern SaharaYemenZambiaZimbabwePhone NumberPort of Origin(Airport of Departure)Submit Form
