🚺 Empowering Women in Industry Specific to Women in Mining (WiM) Hello Everyone, Wishing you and your loved ones a happy and prosperous New Year 2024! In the topic of women empowerment in Mining, the role of women in the mining industry has come a long way, but there is still much work to be done to achieve gender equality in the sector. The participation of women in the mining industry is not only a matter of gender equality but also a strategic imperative for creating a more sustainable, innovative, and socially responsible sector. Companies that embrace diversity and actively encourage the inclusion of women are likely to benefit from a more resilient and forward-thinking workforce.

I am highlighting some of the poignant moments along with some photos in the video where our women employees showed their appreciation and feelings for their dedication.

The introduction of the ZiG based on the gold reserves, intrigued me to findout what is actually happening in gold artisanal mining sector.

“Within the intricate tapestry of Artisanal and Small-scale Mining (ASM) communities, gender equality is crucial for sustainable development. Yet, women endure systemic marginalisation and discrimination, hindering their full participation within these communities.” In our latest Alchemist, Kady Seguin and Jeannette Akinyi (IMPACT) examine the challenges that women in the industry face, such as lower wages, limited access to higher-paying positions, and unrealised potential.
