The objective of this technical cooperation is to produce a body of research on mining sector value chains aimed at providing policy makers in LAC evidence-based conclusions upon which to make targeted and well-designed public policy decisions. This objective will be accomplished by carrying out a series of analyses aimed at evaluating the potential of the mining sector of Latin America and the Caribbean to be a platform of sustainable development and identifying the value chains associated with the mining sector with the highest maturity levels and most potential for positively impacting the growth and development of the region and strengthening the role that LAC plays in the global energy transition. The research will be focused on energy-transition minerals (ETM) such as lithium, copper, rare earths, bauxite, or iron ore and on countries where the mining sector and its value chains already play an important role.
