Last update: 11 hours agoPeru’s mining spotlight: At the 27th World Mining Congress, Peru was recognized by representatives from 10 countries and international organizations as a key global producer of strategic minerals tied to the energy transition, with calls to speed up digital transformation and streamline permits while keeping strong environmental and social standards. Humanitarian response: Peru dispatched 44 firefighters from its USAR Medium Team to Venezuela for rescue operations, alongside 14 metric tons of humanitarian aid, with a trained search-and-rescue dog included.

Sustainable mobility debate: Lima’s bike-lane expansion, supported by German financing, continues to spark controversy abroad, while local advocates argue it’s both climate action and a safety upgrade after cyclist deaths.
