African Energy and Mining Management Initiative (AEMI)

African Energy and Mineral Management Initiative (AEMI) is a non-governmental organization founded in 2016 with offices in Uganda and South Sudan. The establishment of AEMI was inspired by resourceful and development-driven energy and mineral experts to act as a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) aimed at safeguarding Africa’s extractive and energy industries. The origin of AEMI can also be understood to have been influenced by the desire and commitment for energy and mineral experts of different African nationalities to collectively fight poverty on the continent by advocating for good governance and management of the extractive industry.
