Recent: Consultation on the Global Battery Alliance's Battery Passport Indigenous Peoples' rights rulebook

The Global Battery Alliance (GBA) organised online consultations with Indigenous Peoples’ organizations worldwide on 23 and 24 October 2024 to gather input on the draft Respect for Indigenous Peoples’ Rights rulebook. Watch a recording of the consultations to learn more about the Battery Passport and the rulebook which aims to minimize adverse impacts and promote socio-economic opportunities for Indigenous communities throughout the battery value chain.

For more information on this and other rulebooks please contact secretariat@globalbattery.org.

Providing and processing your feedback

Alongside lessons from piloting the rulebook, the feedback collected via the recent consultation will be used to revise the GBA’s approach to the Battery Passport indicators and the final rulebook. The revised indicators will be shared with organisations who participated in this initial consultation via email and will be available for further review and comment via a public consultation period planned for Q1-Q2, 2025.
