- Highlights: The first global gender in Oil, gas and mining conference held by World Bank Group in June 2020. Select papers from the conference are presented here. Range of topics addressed from the four pillars of the World Bank Group's gender strategy. Whereas some progress has been made in closing gender gaps with respect to basic capabilities, significant gender gaps remain when it comes to advanced capabilities. More work still to be done in closing the gaps in participation mid-career and in ensuring that women and men benefit equally from extractive projects in their communities. Abstract: This special section of the Extractive Industries and Society brings together a collection of papers on gender and the extractive industries. These papers were developed from presentations delivered at the international conference, Gender in Oil, Gas and Mining: New Frontiers of Progress, Challenges and Solutions, held at World Bank headquarters in Washington DC, June 2018. The section presents work which seeks to address gender gaps in oil, gas and mining. It includes papers that examine gender in the context of the Extractives Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI); traceability schemes for tin, tantalum and tungsten (otherwise known as the "3Ts") and gold; and national policies on extractives.
