| Summary: | The Pioneering New Approaches in Support
of Sustainable Development in the Extractive Sector project
promotes mine development and operation and improves
opportunities for the sustainable development of mining
communities and regions during all phases of the mining
cycle. In part, the project responds to recommendations in
"Breaking New Ground," the report of the Mining,
Minerals, and Sustainable Development (MMSD) project (2002),
for new approaches to enable governments, industry, and
communities to create country-specific frameworks, including
community sustainable development plans, that would
ultimately reduce conflict, promote cooperation, and enhance
the contribution of mineral-related investment to
sustainable development. The result is this Community
Development Toolkit, which has two main parts: 1) 17 Tools
intended for use throughout the project cycle and which
cover the assessment, planning, management, and evaluation
phases of community development as well as stakeholder
relationships; and 2) the Background volume, which contains
the background and context to the project as well as an
examination of the mineral policies and mining laws
necessary for mineral activity to contribute to sustainable development. |
