STRATEGIES• AMDC should annually send reminder letters to Ministry/Departments in

charge of Minerals, oil and gas sector (Follow Diplomatic mission protocols)

• Copy to Geological Surveys

• Two entry points

• Ministry of Foreign Affairs

• Ministry of Mines

• AMDC should use the geological events to spread the message;

• Regional Conference- e.g Mining Indaba

• Exhibition booth- Noted that some are very expensive

• Countries should Establish National Contact Points- Desk promoters

• Geo-Science Newsletters

This is the preliminary work by the Sub-Committee which can, if necessary and after this workshop, continue being in touch with AMDC

through the Communications Office
