#TBT: Looking back at #RawMaterialsWeek in Brussels!
We teamed up with 11 other EU-funded initiatives to co-organise the event “Crossroads of Innovation: Shared Challenges and Joint Solutions in Raw Materials.”

#HorizonEurope #CriticalRawMaterials
Finance and innovation are key to a resilient raw materials sector. At the EIB, we’re driving both.
This week our experts joined panels at the #RawMaterialsWeek, signed a Declaration of Intent with Australia, and advanced a major CRM project.

As #RawMaterialsWeek comes to an end, check out our new publication on EU CRM policy.
In it, researchers Edoardo Righetti, Vasileios Rizos & Deniz Tekin develop a policy framework that ensures the 'green premium' for ESG-compliant CRMs is worth the cost.

As the EU advances its deregulation agenda, mining in the #DRC continues to displace people, destroy forests and fuel conflict. During #RawMaterialsWeek, the EU must consider how its decisions affect those most harmed by the global rush for minerals.

EFG is at the 10th #RawMaterialsWeek in Brussels, represented by Executive Director Anita Stein. Day 1 highlighted Europe’s need for faster permitting, clearer investor pathways and stronger social acceptance.

Honoured to intervene at an event organised by civil society at #RawMaterialsWeek
#EU has developed various instruments to secure its supply chains,but none puts free prior inform consent & ILO 169 Conv at its heart, while half of critical minerals projects are on Indigenous or peasants territories
This morning, industry and EU functionaries received a grand welcome to the #RawMaterialsWeek. Grassroots orgs & people affected by mining demanded: No minerals for militarisation! Yes to Life, No to Mining!
Vanavond om 18u30 getuigen Yovana Mamani, Mirtha Villanueva en Jorge Campanini over de impact van de ontginning van lithium in #Bolivia, van koper en goud in Peru, en de rol die Europese & andere bedrijven & overheden daarbij spelen. #RawMaterialsWeek Meer info 👇 broederlijkdelen.be/nl/agenda/ge...

🎉Great news from Serbia! After decades of civil society resistance, the mining project in Jadar valley has been suspended. Nice to start the traditionally industry-dominated EU #RawMaterialsWeek with a people power win.
Hear from Jadar organiser Aleksandra:

"Onder het mom van versterking van de competitiviteit ondermijnt de EU normen die de bescherming van #milieu en #mensenrechten moeten versterken, zoals de zorgplichtwet of wetgeving tegen ontbossing," zegt collega @thomascraenen.bsky.social nav #RawMaterialsWeek Lees PB mailchi.mp/broederlijkd...

📰Però no cal anar-nos-en tan lluny! Reconeixeu els indrets de la imatge? Doncs la pols d'aquestes carreteres conté terres rares. Quina és la seva procedència? Per què s'acumulen al nostre entorn? Ho investiga J.A. en col·laboració amb científics de la #UAB. doi.org/10.1016/j.at... #RawMaterialsWeek
🔍J.A. Proenza participa en el projecte europeu #SuMREE que busca reduir l'impacte ambiental de l'extracció de terres rares. Investiga geomaterials que contenen #REE, en diversos climes, entorns i condicions. Els resultats d'aquests estudis són aplicats a la mina Sokli (Finlàndia). #RawMaterialsWeek
⛏️ On the occasion of the EU #RawMaterialsWeek 2024, it's important to think about the human rights and environmental risks of rushing to secure transition minerals, particularly the impact of mining for these minerals on #IndigenousPeoples.

'Africa is not retaining its transition minerals value. The EU must truly ensure win-win partnerships with African countries' says Ouleymatou Ngom from #PWYP in a powerful speech at EU #RawMaterialsWeek.
@saskiabricmont.bsky.social @eeb.org
We're at EU #RawMaterialsWeek, bringing together CSOs & EU decision makers to look at how transition mineral producing African countries can truly benefit from their resources. It’s time the EU allows them to become more than raw materials exporters!

Coneguts com a terres rares #REE aquests 17 elements de la taula periòdica tenen unes propietats indispensables per a una societat cada vegada més tecnològica que necessita recursos energètics alternatius per a mitigar els efectes del #canviclimatic. @cienciesterraub.bsky.social #RawMaterialsWeek
« EU legislators don’t know exactly what is happening on the ground » says @saskiabricmont.bsky.social at EU #RawMaterialsWeek to highlight the importance of working with Southern countries impacted by transition minerals extraction & Free Trade Agreements.
