Mistra Mineral Governance (MISTRA)

MISTRA will help public and private decision-makers in Sweden and in the EU navigate the landscape of critical minerals and the low carbon energy transmission.

Themes

Critical minerals play an important role in the low carbon energy transition. Ensuring sufficient access to such raw materials in a fair and sustainable way can become a complex balancing act requiring particular governance approaches.

To help public and private decision-makers in Sweden and in the EU navigate this landscape, Mistra Mineral Governance research project will:

(1) analyze what current and future supply chains might look like;

(2) consider the geopolitical and market context in which energy transitions take place;

(3) identify potential goal conflicts and their solutions;

(4) co-create new ways to govern the transition while protecting human rights, promoting social justice and enhancing competitiveness.
