ANYMORE Taruvinga, Chief Executive Officer of Zimbabwe’s Mining Industry Pension Fund (MIPF), will speak at the Mining Health and Safety 2026 Conference in Takoradi, Ghana, on April 22–23.
Taruvinga, appointed MIPF CEO in November 2025, previously led the Securities and Exchange Commission of Zimbabwe and held senior roles at the Zimbabwe Stock Exchange. He is a Chartered Financial Analyst and holds an MSc in Finance and Investments.
He will present strategies on linking workplace safety to pension sustainability, stressing that accidents reduce workforce participation and long-term contributions. “Our mission is to protect workers’ futures, and that begins with ensuring their safety today,” Taruvinga said.
The conference, organised by the Mining Health and Safety Series and supported by Ghana’s Minerals Commission, will feature sessions on accident prevention, compliance, and digital safety tools. Organiser Ing. Pearl Delali Dwira said: “This is about building a culture where miners return home safely every day.”
Key challenges in mining include deeper mines, declining ore grades, tailings governance, and worker wellbeing. Rising demand for minerals tied to clean energy adds pressure on production.
Other speakers will include government officials and technical leaders from across Africa. Panels will highlight occupational health, digital safety systems, and regulatory compliance.
Innovations to be showcased include AI-driven logistics safety systems, automation for hazardous tasks, and digital monitoring of tailings and underground conditions.
The conference aims to strengthen cooperation, share best practices, and encourage investment in safety technologies and workforce wellbeing.
