  • How to Bring About Forest-Smart Mining: Strategic Entry Points for Institutional Donors
    How to bring about forest-smart mining: strategic entry points for institutional donors November 2020 How to bring about forest-smart mining: strategic entry points for institutional donors November 2020 About this report: The World Bank’s PROFOR Trust Fund developed the concept of Forest-Smart Mining in 2017 to raise awareness of different economic sectors’ impacts upon forest health and forest values, such as biodiversity, ecosystem services, human development, supporting and regulating services and cultural values. From 2017 to 2019, Levin Sources, Fauna and Flora International, Swedish Geological AB, and Fairfields Consulting were commissioned by the World Bank/PROFOR Trust fund to investigate good and bad practices of all scales of mining in forest landscapes, and the contextual conditions that support ‘forest-smart’ mining. Three reports and an Executive Summary were published in May 2019, further to a series of events and launches in New York, Geneva, and London which have led to related publications. This report was commissioned by a philanthropic foundation to provide an analysis of the key initiatives and stakeholders working to address the negative impacts of mining on forests. The purpose of the report is to provide a menu of recommendations to inform the development of a new program to bring about forest-smart mining. In the interest of raising awareness and stimulating appetite and action by other institutional donors to step into this space, the client has permitted Levin Sources and Fauna & Flora International to further develop and publish the report. We would like to thank the client for the opportunity to do so.
