This week on What Happens Next?, we’re kickstarting a new series on critical minerals. As we transition to a decarbonised future, away from oil and coal, our technology will run on ores such as lithium, cobalt, and rare earth minerals.

How will this cause global politics to shift? Can mining and sustainability go hand-in-hand? And how can we ensure a just transition for all?
In this new episode of Monash University’s podcast, What Happens Next?, our guests discuss the challenges and opportunities critical minerals can play in transitioning society away from fossil fuels to a more sustainable future. Can Australia be a leader in the critical minerals race?
Host Dr Susan Carland is joined this week by Professor Sue Park, Professor of Global Governance at the University of Sydney; Dr Mohan Yellishetty, Associate Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering at Monash University; and Dr Paris Hadfield, Research Fellow at the Monash Sustainable Development Institute.
