Curso de Capacitación: Construyendo Capacidades para Implementar el Marco de Políticas Mineras en la Republica Dominicana
De 15 a 19 de septiembre de 2014, el Instituto Internacional para el Desarrollo Sostenible (por sus siglas en inglés, IISD) y la Dirección General de Minería (DGM) del Ministerio de Energía y Minas de la República Dominicana han desarrollado el Curso de Capacitación “Construyendo Capacidades para Implementar el Marco de Políticas Mineras en la República Dominicana”, en Santo Domingo.
Los tres primeros días del curso han sido dedicados a la Optimización de Beneficios Socioeconómico; los tres últimos, a la Minería Artesanal y en Pequeña Escala. Enfocando en esos dos temas, el curso ha dado atención a las principales preocupaciones identificadas en el trabajo de evaluación realizado por IISD sobre la preparación de la República Dominicana para implementar el Marco de Política Minera (MPM) del Foro Intergubernamental sobre Minería, Minerales, Metales y Desarrollo Sostenible (por sus siglas en inglés, IGF). Han participado del curso funcionarios del gobierno, mineros y representantes de comunidades, de cooperativas y del sector privado.
