As the world moves towards more sustainable energy sources and infrastructure projects, demand for critical energy transition minerals is surging. Given the uneven distribution of such resources, how can we support cooperative resource management between countries while curbing heightening geopolitical tensions and potential supply chain disruptions?
In a recent paper published in Science, Saleem Ali and co-authors (including GDI's Jose Antonio Puppim De Oliveira) propose the creation of a Global Minerals Trust as a response to such challenges. In this episode of the GDI Podcast, Saleem joins Tomas Frederiksen to discuss the specifics of the proposal, including how it has been received so far and its potential implications for developing countries.
