受沖突影響和高風(fēng)險(xiǎn)區(qū)域：受沖突影響和高風(fēng)險(xiǎn)區(qū)域是經(jīng)識(shí)別存在武裝沖突、大面積暴力活動(dòng)或其他存在使人民遭受傷害的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)地區(qū)。武裝沖突地形式多種多樣，如國(guó)際沖突或非國(guó)際沖突，可能涉及兩個(gè)或兩個(gè)以上國(guó)家，可能由解放戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)，叛亂、內(nèi)站等構(gòu)成。高風(fēng)險(xiǎn)區(qū)域可能包括那些政局不穩(wěn)，或存在政治壓迫、制度缺陷、不安全因素、民用基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施崩潰、廣泛暴力活動(dòng)的地區(qū)。這類地區(qū)的特點(diǎn)往往是大規(guī)模侵犯人權(quán)、違反國(guó)際或國(guó)內(nèi)法律等。
認(rèn)識(shí)到在受沖突影響和高風(fēng)險(xiǎn)區(qū)域從事礦產(chǎn)開采、貿(mào)易、處理、出口存在可能形成重大負(fù)面影響的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，并認(rèn)識(shí)到我們有尊重人權(quán)、不助長(zhǎng)沖突的義務(wù)，我們承諾采納并廣泛推廣如下受沖突影響和高風(fēng)險(xiǎn)區(qū)域礦石負(fù)責(zé)任采購(gòu)政策，并將其納入與供應(yīng)商簽訂的合同和/協(xié)議之中。我們承諾不從事任何為沖突提供資助的活動(dòng)，承諾遵守聯(lián)合國(guó)相關(guān)制裁決議，或者在適用情況下，遵守執(zhí)行此類決議的國(guó)內(nèi)法律。
