Bridging The Gap Between Women & Men In Mining Conference

Championing Diversity for Sustainable Growth
Johannesburg, South Africa – 11–12 September 2025

While progress has been made, deep-rooted inequalities remain. From income gaps and unequal domestic responsibilities to the underrepresentation of women in leadership roles, gender-based challenges continue to shape workplace dynamics. These issues are compounded by broader pressures such as climate change, energy insecurity, and volatile commodity markets all of which demand a more inclusive, adaptive, and resilient mining sector.

Taking place over two transformative days, the conference will bring together industry leaders, mining professionals, policymakers, and gender equity advocates to explore progressive strategies for reshaping organisational culture and driving inclusive growth.

Key Themes Include:

• Redefining leadership and challenging gender stereotypes in mining
• Addressing mental health challenges faced by both women and men
• Promoting equal pay, career advancement, and workplace equity
• Enhancing safety and PPE through a gender-responsive lens
• Empowering male allyship as a driver of cultural transformation

The business case is clear: gender equity is not just a moral imperative, but a strategic one.
