Tender Details

The ToR focuses on developing a comprehensive, evidence-based understanding of environmental and social (E&S) risks across the critical minerals value chain in Southeast Asia. It will map how key minerals such as those used in batteries, renewable energy technologies, and electricity infrastructure flow from extraction and processing through manufacturing to end use and recycling. Across each stage, the analysis is expected to identify and assess risks related to environmental impacts (e.g., emissions, water use, biodiversity loss), social challenges (e.g., labor conditions, community impacts, and human rights), and governance issues (e.g., regulatory gaps, corruption risks, and supply chain transparency). The study should examine how these risks are currently managed within national regulatory frameworks and institutional systems, and how they compare to recognized international standards and good practices.Building on this analysis, the consulting firm is expected to identify critical gaps in policy, regulation, and implementation capacity, as well as key bottlenecks that may limit responsible investment and sustainable sector growth. The consulting firm should map relevant stakeholders including government agencies, industry players, investors, and civil society and assess their roles in managing risks and enabling improvements across the value chain. The final outputs are expected to provide practical, prioritized recommendations to strengthen regulatory frameworks, improve industry practices, and enhance risk screening and monitoring by investors. The study should also explore opportunities for greater regional alignment of standards and cooperation, with the aim of supporting more sustainable, resilient, and investment-ready critical mineral supply chains.
