The high-level conference is convened by the OECD and the World Bank Group, with the participation of the International Energy Agency, in response to the G7 mandate to strengthen resilient, transparent, and sustainable critical mineral supply chains. This strategic priority has been implemented since 2023 by the G7 Presidencies of Japan, Italy, and Canada. As global demand for critical minerals continues to surge—driven by the clean energy transition and other key sectors of the global economy—countries are seeking effective ways to secure diversified supply, reduce vulnerabilities, and uphold strong environmental and social standards. The conference will provide a platform to discuss these challenges and explore opportunities to unlock public and private investment for mineral value chain development, including in developing countries.
