Speaker profile
Bianca Derya Neumann
Chair of Resource Management Youth Member Group
The Resource Management Young Member Group (RMYMG) of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) Expert Group on Resource Management (EGRM) shall serve to ensure intergenerational equity where the views of the youth are considered in current decision-making on resource management.
Primarily, RMYMG will consist of young volunteers who will contribute and exchange knowledge and information within the Group itself, and EGRM. The youth community joining the energy and resources workforce as new professionals, students or activists is an increasingly critical stakeholder for the resource industry. The Group aims to assist EGRM in its work relating to the dissemination and implementation of the United Nations Framework Classification for
Resources (UNFC) and the United Nations Resource Management System (UNRMS) principles.
RMYMG was established as an education platform to educate young students and professionals on the importance of sustainable resource management and how to apply UNFC and UNRMS to develop energy and mineral resource endowments to meet the SDGs.
