We invite emerging leaders, industry professionals, and innovators to submit abstracts that explore the role of youth in future-proofing the African mining sector. Contributions should aim to drive knowledge sharing, spark meaningful dialogue, and present practical solutions that respond to the evolving needs of the industry.

This is an opportunity to contribute to key conversations shaping a more resilient and forward-looking minerals sector, while sharing insights, research, and experiences with a broader professional community.
