During her remarks, Hiam-Gálvez stated that mining will ultimately be judged by the future it enables. In this regard, she emphasised that the shift required for mining to play a role in building nations lies in moving from short-term gains to long-term prosperity.
The Program Chair of WMC 2026 stressed that when mining evolves from mere extraction to a genuine contribution, without creating dependency, tangible positive impacts emerge: trust is built, investor confidence is strengthened, and nations thrive.
In this context, she noted that mining can and must be part of the solution for the future, acting as an enabler of development and allowing regions to continue to prosper long after mining activity has ended.
The participation of Doris Hiam-Gálvez at the Future Minerals Forum reinforces the challenge put forward by the World Mining Congress 2026, an event that will bring together authorities, leaders, and governments in Peru from 24 – 26 June to discuss the future of global mining.
