Sustainability and co-existence: Innovative solutions for artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) in Brazil

In December 2022 the World Bank held a conference which focused on the Bank's Covid-19 emergency response for ASM mining communities. Case studies and testimonies from partner organizations and miners who participated in the COVID-19 emergency response window were shared. This blog has been adapted from the testimony provided by Carlos Henrique Xavier Araujo, PhD candidate and researcher at the Centre for Responsible Mining (NAP. Mineração) at the University of São Paulo.
