This project was aimed to conduct a “A Review of Alignment between National Extractives Legislation and Policy and the Africa Mining Vision (AMV)”. The study showed that this alignment could not be undertaken by a government or other institution in isolation but had to be addressed as a pervasive concern which every stakeholder and institution in the Angolan extractive industry needed to engage with. Therefore, CATOCA Diamond Mining Company and ENDIAMA became key participants in this study. With such a view in place, this project contributed to the Angolan Policy alignment with the African Mining Vision (AMV). Under the guidance of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), this study assessed to what extent the existing legal, institutional, policy and regulatory framework aligned with the AMV and recommended ways of improvement to conduct the alignment. The project made an important contribution, while defining a sustainable resource development roadmap for Angola and African resource-based economies. In response, Angola has undergone transformations so as to align itself with this regional policy.
The project was presented in English and Portuguese in the form of a workshop to 15 senior corporate and government executives from the Ministry of Mines and Geology of Angola, UNDP Angola and CATOCA-ENDIAMA. The workshop aimed to fill capacity-building gaps, which needed to be addressed in order to assist the country in meeting the requirements of the AMV and a roadmap for Sustainable Resource Development.
