The ANZCCJ Sustainability Committee in collaboration with Baker & McKenzie invites you to an exclusive in-person event on Wednesday, 26 November 2025.

The discussion will focus on the strategic role of rare earths and critical minerals in the global energy transition and their growing importance in geopolitical strategy. It will explore how these resources are central to strengthening Australia–Japan cooperation, particularly in addressing supply chain challenges.

Attendees will gain valuable insights into the impact of EU regulations - such as the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), the Critical Raw Materials Act and other government policies - along with practical guidance on building secure, sustainable, and resilient supply chains in response to emerging global ESG frameworks. The event will also highlight collaboration opportunities for developers in both countries to harness the potential of these critical minerals.

Whether you’re in mining, energy, policy, investment, or ESG advisory, this event offers timely insights into the evolving global context for critical resources - and how Australia and Japan can lead together in shaping a secure and sustainable future.

• Yohei Suzuki - Principal Consultant, ERM: Environmental Resources Management
