The Responsible Minerals Initiative holds an annual conference in conjunction with the RBA's Responsible Business annual conference. This event brings together representatives of industry, government and civil society for updates, in-depth discussions and guidance on best practices to help companies make informed choices about responsibly sourced minerals in their supply chains. In addition, RMI hosts a Seminar Series on current topics and offers various webinars throughout the year.
