Based on two years of research in Zambia, Switzerland and China, the interdisciplinary research project Valueworks based at the University of Basel and funded by SNIS examined the supply and value chain of one metal, copper, across three countries, Zambia, Switzerland and China. Researchers, NGOs, civil society activists and one international organization aimed to map the actors involved and the “value captured” along the copper value chain between Zambia and China. Our key interest was the role of Switzerland, host to the world’s most important commodity trading hub, and its impact on lifeworlds along the copper value chain.
The Executive Summary offers a summary of the results, some avenues for their practical application, open questions and a detailed list of past activities and past and forthcoming publications. It also lists policy recommendations for Swiss policy makers at regulatory, political, scientific and institutional levels.
