This Tuesday was the first day of the course “Environmental management of mines” in Mwanza, Tanzania. 24 participants from 10 countries in Africa will have two weeks of training composed of field visits, lectures and exercises. SGU is leading the training within the project PanAfGeo, which is a collaboration between the European geological surveys and the African geological surveys to increase the knowledge about mining. The project is co-funded by the European Union and IGF (Intergovernmental Forum on Mining, Minerals, Metals and Sustainable Development). For this training SGU is also collaborating with AMGC, which is hosting the training in Tanzania. The pictures show a group photo of the participants as well as a photo from a teambuilding exercise the first day.
