Final RemarksFinal Remarks
• The mining sector is undergoing expansion and its contribution is significant for the social and productive development of the country.
• During the first decade of this century, sector growth took place in a disorganized manner, which overwhelmed the existing institutional capacity.
• Sustainable development implies economic development, resources for productive development, environmental balance, ecosystem preservation and intergenerational equity as well as social prosperity, poverty reduction, dignified employment and formalization, respecting and promoting cultures and communities.
• The vision of sustainability will only become reality by organizing the sector. Between 2011 and 2012, a profound institutional reform was undertaken, which has led to important results in the administration of resources, mining formalization and the adoption of good practices within the industry.
• We are working in an inter-institutional coordination in order to achieve an equilibrium between mining development and environmental preservation.
• Colombia is promoting responsible mining in accordance with the world’s best practices
Conclusions Conclusions
Mining authorities, mining companies and associations are
committed to promote responsible practices in the mining industry
