Get involved

Build a shared picture of DRC cobalt.

The Hub is an open, evolving reference. It gets better the more people add to it and keep it honest. Here are three ways to take part, whoever you are in the value chain.

02
Collaborate

Toward more rational, consistent information sharing.

Good information on ASM cobalt is scattered and uneven. The Hub exists to pull it together. If you hold a piece of the picture, bring it in, or take part in the sovereign tools built for that.

Share news, updates, sources and initiatives

  • News and updates from the ground or the value chain
  • Sources, studies and datasets we should reference
  • Initiatives, programmes or pilots not yet listed
  • Corrections to anything that's out of date

Take part in sovereign digitisation

Beyond sharing with the Hub, three sovereign platforms let actors own and publish their own data directly.

03
Sponsor this hub

Put your name behind the shared record.

The Hub runs as a public good: sources re-checked, records corroborated, corrections published in the open. A sponsor funds that work, and can host the Hub under its own brand or domain while we continue to maintain it.

Sponsorship starts as a conversation, not a rate card. Tell us who you are and what the Hub should become for your mandate.
