Institute urges US to make concerted efforts to partner with African countries on critical minerals

A study group convened by the United States Institute of Peace (USIP) has made multiple recommendations for the US government to support mutually beneficial public and private partnerships in Africa, all in efforts to diversify US critical mineral supply chains.

The study group set out to explore the role that African countries play in the US’ efforts to diversity critical mineral supply chains and how new investment in partnerships can help drive economic development and strengthen peace and security on the African continent.
