Major shoutout to @NRGInstitute & @SusFitzgerald: Trade policy must be fundamentally reformed to drive a #JustTransition. Check out @SOMO's longread on the EU's critical mineral strategy: somo.nl/the-eus-critical-min… #EURawMaterialsWeek
"Many countries remain trapped in dependency on raw material exports. #EU must break this cycle & do things differently, with trade, finance & investment policies that supports these countries instead of hindering them" says @SusFitzgerald @NRGInstitute at #EU #RawMaterialsWeek

🗣️@SusFitzgerald from @NRGInstitute @OECD Forum now: "The growing concern at is not just undue influence on the implementation of laws, but on their very content. Policy capture, where powerful interests shape laws to their advantage, must be addressed now more than ever."
