The report, which was launched today, has highlighted key areas that need to be addressed urgently to minimise the risk of corruption.
The report comes from TIPNG’s participation in a global research initiative called the Mining for Sustainable Development (M4SD) program.
TIPNG says the need to identify risks in the mining licence process is because the awards process is the start of the mining value chain and any effects of corruption there will be passed along, eventually impacting the country’s sustainable development.
