  We recognize that the conference is taking place in a location that is at the crossroads of the territories of the Niowentsïo of the Wendat, the Ndakina of the Wabanaki, the Nistassinan of the Innu, the Nitaskinan of the Atikamekws and the Wolastokuk of the Maliseet. Mining the Connections is an international and multidisciplinary conference gathering academic researchers, students as well as government representatives, Indigenous and non-Indigenous community members, NGOs and mining companies to discuss mining developments and its impacts. Mining is a global industry with intensely local impacts. Mining activities have major effects on both the natural and social environment. From water pollution to acid mine and rock drainage, from wildlife habitat modification to land and ecosystems degradation, the environmental effects of mining are significant. These vary throughout the life cycle of the mining project, depending on the type of ore being mined, exploration, extraction and treatment methods, and phase of development. Mineral production also affects the communities where a mine is established. It might create economic wealth through employment and profits, but may also entail loss of authority over traditional territories, reconfigure a community's social and political hierarchies (including gender equity), and have impacts on local livelihoods and community cohesion. Furthermore, mining projects can have important impacts on the health and well-being of individuals and local communities. Finally, whether ores naturally run out or prices run low, all mines eventually come to an end, leaving behind economic and environmental challenges, as well as social and cultural legacies. This international conference explores the many connections between mineral extraction, local communities, and the environment from a multidisciplinary perspective. It seeks to build and increase connections between governments, researchers, NGOs, practitioners, and community representatives from around the globe, in order to increase knowledge of mining development and its impacts. In addition to more traditional presentations, the event will feature workshops on key themes: Working with Mining Companies, Post-mining futures, IBAs implementation. These workshops will allow researchers, advocacy groups, mining and community representatives to exchange on these topics.
