We operate from seven offices worldwide — in Geneva, New York, Chicago, Amsterdam, London, Singapore and Wuhan — enabling collaboration across value chains and geographies. Together with our members, we are rewiring economic and financial systems to support the transition to a net-zero, nature-positive, and equitable future that creates business value.

The International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM) was established in 2001 to improve sustainable development performance in the mining and metals industry. Today, it brings together 27 mining and metals companies and over 30 national and regional mining associations and global commodity associations. The organization emerged out of a multi-stakeholder research initiative – the Mining, Minerals and Sustainable Development (MMSD) project – which examined the role of mining in a sustainable future. Its findings recognized the industry’s potential contribution, identified core challenges and set out an agenda for change that would form the backbone of ICMM’s mandate. ICMM now serves as an agent for change and continual improvement on issues relating to mining and sustainable development. Member companies have made a public commitment to improve their sustainability performance and are required to report against their progress on an annual basis. We engage with a broad range of stakeholders – governments, international organizations, communities and indigenous peoples, civil society and academia – in order to build meaningful relationships. Our vision is one of leading companies working together and with others to strengthen the contribution of mining, minerals and metals to sustainable development.
