What are we learning about Global Witness’s contributions towards a just transition?

The document outlines the goals of Global Witness's Transition Mineral campaign, launched in late 2022, which seeks to prevent the repetition of exploitation and environmental harm in the extraction of minerals like lithium, cobalt, nickel, and copper. It defines a 'just transition' as one that promotes inclusive decision-making, strengthens supply chain and investment standards, and ensures communities receive fair benefits.

• The increasing demand for transition minerals—specifically lithium, cobalt, nickel, and copper—has made mineral-rich countries central to geopolitical competition, where corporations and investors compete for deposits for profit.
• Marginalised communities and defenders near mining sites face significant risks to their lives and rights due to the global struggle for mineral resources.
• Global Witness defines a 'just transition' as a process that includes inclusive decision-making, the strengthening of investment and supply chain standards, and the guarantee that communities receive a fair share of benefits.
