Diamonds - Beyond Shining Illusions
Investigating mining operations in Sierra Leone, Lesotho, and the Democratic Republic of Congo, this documentary exposes the unspoken realities of industrial diamond mining in African countries. The claim that 99% of diamonds are now conflict-free eclipses persistent and systemic challenges on the ground. 'Beyond Shining Illusions' gives a voice to local residents and artisanal miners directly affected by large-scale diamond mining operations. In their testimonies, they share ongoing struggles, highlighting cases of violence by security forces protecting mining operations, air and water pollution due to blasting and tailings management practices, and an overall lack of socio-economic benefits. Produced by the Kimberley Process Civil Society Coalition, the documentary aims to shed light on issues that are today overlooked, to go behind the marketing lines, demand real change and foster meaningful discussion on the ways the sector can uphold its potential to do good for communities. For diamond resources to truly benefit communities, the documentary identifies greater transparency and independent monitoring as key elements to enhance corporate accountability. Mining companies, industry actors and states all have a role to play to protect community rights and improve both mining and sourcing practices. This documentary has been produced with the financial assistance of the European Union. Its contents are the sole responsibility of the KP CSC and do not necessarily reflect the views of the European Union.

First post on this thing feels as strange as my first Twitter post. Awkward. Yet hopeful.
