Rutherford aims to provide a better understanding of women\u2019s economic roles in mining and thus address a significant gap in knowledge about ASM and women as economic actors in post-conflict settings. The study will also consider the impacts of policies aimed at legalizing and regularizing ASM, contributing to policy discussions about strengthening conflict or fragile states and their mining sectors&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Original Source: Today@Carleton<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;An Insight Grant will enable&nbsp;Blair Rutherford, director of the Institute of African Studies [and cross-appointed faculty with the Department of Geography and Environmental Studies], to conduct an in-depth study of the role of women in artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) in three conflict-affected African countries at different stages of rebuilding: Sierra Leone, Kenya and Zimbabwe.
