This briefing marked the launch of Global Rights Compliance’s landmark new report, ‘Risk at the Source: Critical Mineral Supply Chains and State-Imposed Forced Labour in the Uyghur Region’, uncovers global supply chains’ exposure to minerals mined and processed in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR). The speakers including Yalkun Uluyol, Caroline Dale and Rahima Mahmut, highlighted the China's repression of Uyghurs in the Uyghur Region, key takeaways from the research connecting the Region’s system of state-imposed forced labour to major Chinese producers of four key minerals: titanium, lithium, beryllium, and magnesium and actionable steps for policy and advocacy.
