ASGM is a largely informal entrepreneurial activity that has become vital to the economic structure and fabric of many countries. In order for artisanal and small-scale mining to transition away from being a predominantly informal activity linked to social and environmental problems, and towards a formal, professional and respected livelihood activity, miners will require the business infrastructure, financial literacy and planning skills necessary to secure loans and seek out new investors.
The training curriculum is available in English, French, and Spanish.
