IGF Guidance for governments - Managing artisanal and small-scale mining

In order to expand on the direction provided by the IGF’s Mining Policy Framework (MPF), IGF member states identified the need for more concrete guidance on managing key issues relating to mining and sustainable development. In response, the IGF Secretariat will develop, on an annual basis, IGF Guidance for Governments documents that build on and enhance the direction provided in the MPF in order to assist member countries in their implementation of the framework. IGF Guidance for Governments: Managing artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) is the first report in this series.
