With consumption of natural resources continuing to increase worldwide, resource-rich countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America are positioned to play an increasingly crucial role supplying the demand, and reaping increased revenues, for decades to come. This Guide presents a concise introduction to the different Latin American policy models applied to promote development in the oil, mining and gas sectors, while at the same time, laying the foundation for sustainable economic development. It outlines the results of different policy models, and underlines the importance of taking into account regional contexts, including cultural, environmental and political differences.
