Unearthing Benefits - Mining Community Development Agreements in Mongolia

Event Description

The speaker explores the institutional and governance design of Community Development Agreements (CDAs) in Mongolia based on the analysis of Rio Tinto’s gold and copper mine (Turquoise Hill) CDA with the South Gobi local government against the mining industry’s best practice standards and benchmarks to generate insight on whether and how it meets the local government and community’s developmental aspirations and expectations of its local resource exploitation.

Ulziilkham Enkhbaatar is a PhD student at the Peter A. Allard School of Law, UBC, and in her current doctoral dissertation, she examines the impact of Community Development Agreements (CDAs) on local communities in the vicinity of large-scale mining projects in Mongolia.

Light lunch will be served. For Zoom link or paper, please contact sopuru10@student.ubc.ca
