🌍 A defining moment for democracy — and for open government. At the 2025 #OGPSummit in Vitoria-Gasteiz, 2,000+ reformers from 70+ countries came together to push for bold, inclusive reforms that deliver resilient, fair, and accountable societies.

⏳ 10 days to the OGP Global Summit! Spanish Minister of Digital Transformation Óscar López, OGP CEO Aidan Eyakuze, and Cielo Magno, OGP Co-chair, share why bold, inclusive reforms are needed — and send a message to reformers: the world needs us to act. #OGPSummit #OGPSpain

Esta visita se dio pocos días después de que Chile confirmara su incorporación a la Iniciativa para la Transparencia de las Industrias Extractivas –EITI por su sigla en inglés–, un avance que fortalece la confianza y la rendición de cuentas en nuestro sector. 🙌 En Anglo American, creemos que el diálogo es la base de una minería responsable, por lo que agradecemos a los asistentes por habernos permitido compartir nuestra experiencia global en este proceso.

Nuestro IROC fue el escenario de un hito en responsabilidad minera en Chile. 🦾 Estamos muy contentos de haber recibido a Helen Clark, presidenta del Consejo Internacional de EITI, junto a representantes de Cochilco y de las principales compañías y gremios mineros del país, para dialogar sobre los desafíos de una industria comprometida con la transparencia.

🎥 At #FfD4 in Seville🇪🇸 earlier this month , EITI Executive Director @Mark_EITI underscored the urgent need to invest in stronger governance and revenue systems to support sustainable development— as global aid flows decline and development challenges mount. 1/3 🧵👇

As @Mark_EITI highlighted, there’s a major opportunity to improve revenue mobilisation as demand for critical minerals grows. But without investing in governance & stronger financial systems, we risk an #energytransition that brings conflict — not the prosperity it promises. 2/3
