dc.descriptionThis analysis document is developed for policymakers and other interested stakeholders on formalization of the artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) sector. It is based on the analysis of the case studies developed by international experts for Ecuador, Peru, Tanzania, Uganda and Mongolia and also draws upon examples from other countries. Formalization is a process that seeks to integrate ASGM into the formal economy. The process of formalization includes the development or adaptation of mining (and other) laws or policies to address the challenges of ASGM. There is growing official recognition that ASGM is an activity that can make a significant contribution to poverty alleviation but that it needs support to overcome associated social and environmental challenges.en
