As global competition intensifies and supply chains become increasingly exposed to geopolitical, environmental, and economic disruption, access to strategic resources and critical minerals has emerged as a defining issue of national resilience and economic security.

This Thought Leadership Series examines the evolving role of strategic reserves, supply‑chain resilience, and policy design in strengthening sovereign capability while maintaining global competitiveness. It explores how governments and industry can work together to secure reliable access to critical inputs essential for energy transition, advanced manufacturing, defence, and emerging technologies.

Through expert insights and real‑world case studies, the series will unpack how nations can move beyond reactive approaches to resource security and instead design coherent, forward‑looking strategies that balance domestic capability with international collaboration.
