The African Mineral Development Centre (AMDC) aims to provide strategic technical advice and assistance on mineral development issues to the African Union, African Regional Economic Communities and member states. The Centre addresses a wide range of mining issues, including the improvement of mineral policy and regulatory frameworks, geological knowledge management, mineral sector governance, artisanal and small-scale mining, economic diversification in mining economies, and human and institutional capacity building. Canada’s support to the AMDC contributes to better mineral governance and revenue management in Africa and helps ensure that Africans receive greater benefits from mineral resource exploitation.
