SUSTAINABLE RAW MATERIALS INDUSTRY
AND DEVELOPMENT POLICIES
June 28, 2012 · Berlin

THE TOPIC
Sustainable Raw Materials Industry and
Compliance with Minimum International
Standards
Raw materials and safe access to raw materials are essential to Germany’s way of life. For many
companies, the availability of suffi cient, secure raw materials is a prerequisite for supporting
Germany’s overall manufacturing and innovation processes. At the same time, securing the rawmaterials
supply is primarily the responsibility of individual companies. The role of politics is to
create the appropriate framework conditions for access to raw materials.
Many of the raw materials that are in demand on the world market come from developing and
emerging markets. They possess wealth that oftentimes is not or has not been adequately leveraged
for their own development. More than half of global raw-materials production
takes place in countries that the World Bank has characterized
as politically unstable or even extremely unstable. And even in more
stable countries, raw-materials production is often associated with
environmental damage, unacceptable working conditions and humanrights
violations as well as with corruption and the improper allocation
of resources.
A major objective of Germany’s development policy in the raw-materials
area is thus reinforcing sustainable raw-materials management
while protecting human rights and meeting the internationally recognized
social and ecological minimum standards. This will promote the responsible and transparent
handling of raw materials, and encourage the development-oriented use of revenue from raw
materials.
Profi ts from raw-materials revenue off er signifi cant potential for sustainable economic development
in our partner countries, as long as suitable framework conditions exist or can be created. Therefore
the German Federal Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development [BMZ] is working to
make raw-materials assets accessible for broadly eff ective economic development in the long term.
This is done by shaping the raw-materials sector in developing and industrial countries according
to economic, ecological and social sustainability principles. In the process, we will also be relying
on partnerships with industry and on “raw-materials partnerships” between Germany and our
partner partner countries.
