Germany's industrial transformation and long-term competitiveness will depend on secure, diversified, and sustainable access to critical raw materials. Against the backdrop of growing geopolitical tensions, increasing global demand, and the concentration of many strategic raw material supply chains, international cooperation is becoming a central pillar of Germany's resource security strategy.

The session will discuss, how Germany can build "win-win" raw materials partnerships that simultaneously strengthen supply security for German industry and create sustainable economic opportunities in partner countries.
