After the European law on critical raw materials adopted in March 2024 by the European Commission, the OACPS (Organization of African, Caribbean and Pacific States) took a position within the framework of the OACPS-EU partnership on the supply of critical raw materials. During the high-level sessions it was unanimously recognized that OACPS countries are rich in several types of raw materials identified by their partners as being critical for the energy transition, but that their share is decreasing in the intermediate sector (refineries, foundries) and in the downstream value chains (manufacturing of semi-finished products). Ministers therefore agreed to approve the guiding principles for enrichment and value creation for critical raw materials in the OACPS.
