Extractive Sector Stakeholders

Extractive sector stakeholders are the individuals, groups, and organizations involved in or affected by activities like mining, oil drilling, and quarrying. This includes governments that regulate and oversee these activities, companies that extract and sell resources, local communities living nearby, workers employed in these industries, environmental groups concerned about ecological impact, and investors funding these projects. Each stakeholder plays a role in ensuring the extraction is done responsibly, sustainably, and with consideration for economic benefits, environmental protection, and social well-being. Their interests and actions influence how the sector operates and how its benefits are shared.
