Campaigns

We want to implement our principles of viewed natural resources as a shared inheritance across minerals, natural resources and the commons, across the globe. At present, we have eight ongoing campaigns:

1. Our campaign asking UNEP to take an intergenerational equity perspective on Mineral Resource Governance

2. Our campaign to demanding a moratorium on deep sea mining in international waters and an update of UNCLOS

3. Mineral Inheritors Rights Association (MIRA), an all-India alliance to implement intergenerational equity, partially an outcome of our all-India campaign to change the National Mineral Policy

4. The Goenchi Mati Movement, whose goal is to implement fair mining in the state of Goa, India.

5. Our campaign to make Zero Loss the goal of the mining minister. This is connected to Ethical Government Accounting, as well as our campaign asking for the implementation of Integrity Due Diligence in extractives.

6. Ethical Government Accounting, our global campaign to change three critical international standards for government accounting, statistics and disclosure to treat mining as the sale of our shared inheritance. This is our most important campaign.

7. Our campaign asking for the implementation of Integrity Due Diligence in extractives. Known thieves cannot manage our shared inheritance. That would be irresponsible.

8. In order to explore approaches to implementing intergenerational equity in the context of climate, we have co-founded the Cap & Share Climate Alliance.

Other Advocacy

We have also sent in a representation connecting intergenerational equity and human rights. This was part of the consultation on the Draft study on Extractives, Environment and Human Rights by the Working Group on Extractive Industries (WGEI) of the African Commission for Human and Peoples Rights (ACHPR).

We also sent a response to a consultation on Just Transition by the UN Working Group on Business and Human Rights under the OHCHR.
