ABOUT DPI
The Development Partner Institute (DPI) exists to unite the global mining value chain.
Our contribution gives stakeholders and owners an equal seat at the table to share perspectives and insights to build mutual understanding and trust; co-creating a shared vision and roadmap.
Our work has two key aims: to unlock transformative potential and accelerate mining’s contribution to a better future.
OUR VISION
Partnering for the future
The Development Partner Framework (DPF) was the result of an award-winning multi-stakeholder dialogue process undertaken in 2014 to reimagine the mine of the future under the auspices of the Kellogg Innovation Network from the Kellogg School of Management.
The Framework is a set of principles designed to help mining companies, host countries and communities carve out their path to long-term success and to lay the foundation for trust, with new ways of operating and collaborating.
