In Pictures: Dignitaries, stakeholders gather for National Mining Dialogue 2026

The National Mining Dialogue 2026 commenced at the Kempinski Hotel Gold Coast City in Accra, convening influential figures from Ghana's mining industry. The event, scheduled for Tuesday, August 18, is centered around the theme "Rethinking the Social Licence to Operate," organized by Asempa 94.7 FM and Ekosiisen in collaboration with Semmis DS and the Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources.

Participants include government representatives, traditional leaders, mining professionals, regulators, and other stakeholders. The discussions are centered on extracting greater economic and social value from Ghana's mineral resources while addressing concerns of mining communities. King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II, Ga Mantse and president of the Ga Traditional Council, presides over the dialogue.

A primary objective of the dialogue is to establish a platform for enhanced transparency, accountability, and relationships between mining companies and communities. The gathering aims to facilitate further engagement on improving these aspects, as showcased in the following photographs from the ongoing National Mining Dialogue 2026 at the Kempinski Hotel in Accra.
