We are thrilled to share our Eastern Uganda Mining Sector Report, a comprehensive exploration of the region's mineral wealth, operational capacities, and the critical role of the mining sector in advancing Uganda's sustainable development and just energy transition. This report, written by Dr Susan Nakanwagi, developed following the UCMP's exclusive mineral excursion (October 3-5, 2024), highlights key environmental, social, and governance (ESG) challenges and opportunities. It also underscores the potential of critical minerals to power Uganda's ambitions for low-carbon development pathways. At Regenerate Africa, we are proud to collaborate with the Uganda Chamber of Mines and Petroleum (UCMP) under our MoU to drive sustainability and knowledge-sharing in the extractive sector. This report is another step in our joint mission to advance strategies, training, and innovations for a more sustainable future. Challenges and Sustainable Practices in Uganda’s MiningDownload
