Sustainable Governance of Natural Resources as a Pathway to Conflict Management
African exports of natural resources constitute roughly 74% of total merchandise exports and the continent is home to about 30% of all global mineral reserves. However, the region has failed to harness these opportunities to foster sustainable development. Worse still, more than half of the 37 countries categorized as fragile and conflict-affected states are to be found in Africa. Other African countries not represented in this statistics are not doing better either. Consequently, this research explores the interactions that underpin sustainable governance of natural resources and conflict in Africa and proffers options for the future.
