International Cobalt Alliance

The International Cobalt Alliance (ICA) is a global organization dedicated to promoting responsible and sustainable practices in the cobalt supply chain. Cobalt is a mineral essential for batteries in electronics and electric vehicles. ICA works to ensure cobalt is mined ethically, minimizing environmental impact and preventing human rights abuses, such as child labor. It brings together companies, industry groups, and governments to set standards, share best practices, and improve transparency. Ultimately, ICA aims to build a trustworthy supply chain that supports sustainable development and responsible sourcing of cobalt.
