The Board has approved two policies, developed by the Environmental Governance Committee and its contributing volunteer experts, to guide WESSA’s engagement and activism concerning current and future mining energy issues.
These policies recognise that the socio-economic and environmental landscapes are complex and so must make space for continuous change and emergence. We recognise that there needs to be some major “transitions”, particularly in how we think about mineral wealth and energy, and the impacts on jobs and livelihoods built around existing activities and systems.
