Mining's Contribution to Development: Stakeholder Views and Expectations

This proposal aims to conduct a survey to better understand stakeholder perceptions and expectations regarding the mining sector's contribution to development. The survey will explore key topics such as infrastructure, social development, environment, climate change, gender, poverty reduction, and health. By identifying shared values and developing novel partnerships, we can improve cooperation and create greater value for all stakeholders.

  1. Stakeholder Views and Expectations on Mining's Contribution to DevelopmentWhat do we still need to Know - a Survey Proposal Christopher Sheldon - Manager (SEGOM) The World Bank Group February 3, 2013

  2. Despite significant investment by the mining industry in CSR programs, the mining sector still ranks poorly among sector peers

  3. Perceptions of the mining sector can be entrenched among stakeholder groups. Better understanding perception and reality can provide a building block towards greater cooperation… The challenge for all stakeholders is to think beyond preconceived notions of who should be doing what for development and look at developing novel partnerships where ‘shared value’ can be created… Public domain images distributed under a creative commons license: Attribution from right Ely William Hill 1915, Jastrow 1899, Anon.

Government NGOs What are the expectations on companies to deal with climate change What are industry responsibilities for health & education Industry ? ?

  6. What do we still need to know about mining’s contribution to development… Need to know at the industry level…. ICMM: Mining Perceptions • Why do these perceptions of the extractives sector exist? • Why do perceptions vary between stakeholder groups? • What behavior would be needed to change these perceptions? International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM) “ Stakeholder Views of Mining and Development, Rob Kerr, Globescan, November 2 2010.

  8. World Bank potential for new products unlocking extractive industry potential to contribute to development World Bank uniquely placed to unlock and leverage private sector development investments…. IBRD Lending FY2012 (US$21 billion) • Expertise in areas where perceptions of extractives are the strongest • Variety of products from partial risk guarantees and IDA / IBRD loans to technical assistance • Convening power and financial strength to be able to build multi stakeholder coalitions

  9. The Extractive Industries Value Chain • Better deals that are better managed for more development impact • World Bank has the capacity to support key links in the value chain Greatest value comes from enhancing sustainable development outcomes at the end of the EI Value Chain

  10. Case Study 1: Opportunities for creating shared value – Tanzania infrastructure… In Tanzania, the timing of mining investments has meant that opportunities to create economic resource corridors may have been lost… • The World Bank has provided assistance to countries in spatial planning and analysis to identify resource corridors • The World Bank provides technical assistance and invests directly in infrastructure projects • Robust environmental and social safeguards can minimize the risk of negative externalities OPM, Tanzania Investments Benefits Study (Sustainable Management of Minerals Resources Project), 2009

  11. Case Study 2: Opportunities for creating shared value – Models for PPPs in Mining Skills Developments Mining skills development remains a major concern for countries hosting foreign owned mining concessions…. • The World Bank invests heavily in capacity building around the world • Case studies on best practice in mining skills PPPs have been looked at through the lens of replicability, particularly in Africa • Regional cooperation on skills development presents a cost effective path to development MMG website [accessed January 2013]

  12. Case Study 3: Opportunities for creating shared value – SME Creation World Bank has recently looked at the opportunities for enhancing local procurement in West Africa…. • Mining projects often treat local procurement on an individual project basis • The regional convening power of the World Bank can encourage broader thinking • The World Bank / IFC has fostered SME cluster development around the world and can provide the assistance needed to enhance local procurement World Bank, Increasing Local Procurement by the Mining Sector in West Africa 2012
