SUMMARY:Building Skills for Sustainable Development Minerals in Tanzania
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator sep_color=”color-210407″ uncode_shortcode_id=”488145″ sep_color_type=”uncode-palette”][uncode_custom_fields post_type=”tribe_venue” field_elements=”value”][vc_column_text]The Programme worked with STAMICO (State Mining Corporation) in Tanzania to strengthen skills in the Development Minerals sector. \nIn Tanzania\, the State Mining Corporation\, apart from commercial large-scale mining\, is also responsible for the development and professionalization of the artisanal and small-scale mining sector. \nA joint team of experts from STAMICO (State Mining Corporation of Tanzania) and the ACP-EU Development Minerals Programme is identifying the best local laterite soil for producing stabilized earth bricks in Dodoma                                                                                                                                                                        Photo credit: UNDP Tanzania\nAn initial field mission assessed training needs\, visited laterite-rich sites for soil sampling\, and identified areas for future activities. The team also reviewed STAMICO’s current artisanal and small-scale mining training curriculum to integrate topics such as environmental standards\, sustainable mining\, and business development. This joint mission marked the start of a deeper collaboration\, highlighting the role of national institutions in promoting responsible practices and local capacity building in the mining of development minerals.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Empowering Women and Youth in Tanzania’s Artisanal Mining Sector
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator sep_color=”color-210407″ uncode_shortcode_id=”488145″ sep_color_type=”uncode-palette”][uncode_custom_fields post_type=”tribe_venue” field_elements=”value”][vc_column_text]A national workshop on empowering women in artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) was held in Dodoma from 24–25 July 2025. The event was opened by Mr. Ally Samaje\, Assistant Commissioner for Minerals and Mines Development\, and marked the launch of a new national effort to support women and youth in Tanzania’s Development Minerals sector. A key moment was the release of the Baseline Study on ASM\, which will guide future actions and policies. \nA panel discussion with NEMC\, the Mining Commission\, and ASM representatives on mitigating the environmental impacts of artisanal mining.                              Photo credit: UNDP Tanzania\nThe workshop brought together 63 participants from government\, women’s mining associations (including Tanzania Women Miners Association\, Tanzania Women in Mining & Mineral Industries and Women in Mining Association)\, Federation of Miners Associations of Tanzania\, technical institutions\, civil society\, and miners from 13 regions. \nDiscussions focused on three priorities: promoting gender equity and stronger leadership roles for women; improving health and safety in mines through better regulation and training; and introducing practical solutions such as low-cost mechanisation tools and digital finance apps to support miners’ productivity and income. \nParticipants agreed on clear follow-up actions\, including safer mining practices\, better access to licensing and finance for women\, and stronger collaboration between miners and policymakers. The workshop built on earlier training sessions held in Singida\, Dodoma\, Morogoro\, and Tanga between May and July. \n  \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
