International Women in Mining Alliance to work for gender equality in the industry

Key themes for the Alliance are inclusive workplace design and practices, overcoming the data deficit about women in the mining sector and the implementation of effective support

The Declaration includes a call for a more coordinated approach to globalized advocacy in support of local and national initiatives; increased coordination at a global level to fully integrate the WIM agenda; and more collaboration among WIM organizations to devise shared guidance, tools and initiatives to facilitate their work in support of women in mining.

Key themes addressed both at the summit and in the Declaration are the recruitment and retention of women in STEM, inclusive workplace design and practices, overcoming the data deficit about women in the mining sector and the implementation of effective support and mentoring programs.

In addition, the document that guides the International WIM Alliance establishes the importance of engaging as an equal with global regulators, market leaders and policy shapers.
