Hot off the press! ☄️ I am so very glad to have worked on this new Global Bulletin on the Scramble for Critical Minerals with Instituto Igarapé. This publication aims to connect the dots on some of the transition risks we need to navigate in relation to mining, particularly in fragile zones.

Climate security is a field that was historically confined to risk mitigation/management in conflict & fragile zones. I worked with the Danish government last year to crack our understanding of climate security wide open. Our thinking is now published in this "peace and planet" guidance note.
