Global South Just-Transition Calculator Report — Mineral Exposure and Funding
Connects European circular healthcare with potential effects in mineral-producing countries: lower virgin material demand, source-country exposure screens, and an optional share of hospital savings routed to just-transition priorities.
What's inside
- Your allocation setting and the resulting just-transition funding estimate
- Potential source-country exposure panel covering producer countries such as DR Congo, South Africa and Guinea
- Funding-mix breakdown across remediation, worker protection, livelihoods, traceability and regional reprocessing capacity
- Branded cover page plus references to USGS Mineral Commodity Summaries 2025 and the IEA Global Critical Minerals Outlook 2025
Who it's for
- Health systems designing just-transition or ethical-procurement commitments
- NGOs and civil-society groups working on mineral justice
- Funders and policy teams sizing a possible reinvestment pot
Frequently asked questions
- What is a just-transition allocation?
- An optional share of estimated hospital savings that could be invested in mine remediation, worker protection, alternative livelihoods, supply-chain traceability or regional reprocessing capacity.
- Does reprocessing one device stop mining somewhere?
- No. The calculator screens for potential exposure and lower virgin material demand. It does not claim that a reprocessed device directly stops a specific mine, and supplier traceability is still required to verify effects.
- Which countries appear in the exposure screen?
- Mineral-producing countries across Africa, Latin America and Asia that supply metals and minerals used in medical devices, shown as an exposure screen rather than a verified supply chain.
