For the past year, their presence has been criticised for putting a fragile environment at risk. However, more recently, their impact on human rights has also been questioned.

The country&rsquo;s mining sector, and related social, economic and environmental issues<\/a>\u00a0| 26 March 2013 | IPIS<br \/>\nGold and diamonds in Central Africa easily conjure up images of conflict, rebel funding, human rights violations, and smuggling. As a country landlocked within an unstable region, neighbouring the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), and recently the scene of another coup, the Central African Republic (CAR) might be considered an appropriate candidate for analysis within the conflict-mineral perspective. Yet this framework would ignore the country\u2019s mining sector\u2019s very specific characteristics. The sector offers an essential livelihood to many households, represents the country\u2019s second most important export product, and is organised in a particular way. Nonetheless, a wide range of issues regarding the country\u2019s mining sector persist.<br \/>\nThis report aims to analyse both the Central African Republic\u2019s gold and diamond mining sector and related environmental and socio-economic issues.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Arms Trade and Security in the Great Lakes Region<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Apple-style-span\"><strong>Recent news on conflict, security and arms trade across the Great Lakes Region<\/strong><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Apple-style-span\"><br \/>\n<strong>Lord\u2019s Resistance Army (LRA)<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/reliefweb.int\/report\/democratic-republic-congo\/lra-regional-update-central-african-republic-dr-congo-and-south-1\" data-cke-saved-href=\"http:\/\/reliefweb.int\/report\/democratic-republic-congo\/lra-regional-update-central-african-republic-dr-congo-and-south-1\">LRA Regional Update: Central African Republic, DR Congo and South Sudan (July &#8211; September 2013)<\/a>\u00a0| 29 October 2013 | UNOCHA | Reliefweb<br \/>\nThe trends in LRA incidents continue to indicate a downward trend from Q2 of 2013.

However, no provision has been envisaged for the monitoring or ATT-related regulation of arms transport services. Monitoring transport services may be key to implementing and enforcing the Arms Trade Treaty. This report will demonstrate how arms shipments may be monitored and reported where there is a substantial risk that the shipments could contribute to fuelling conflict, repressive state practices, and other human rights abuses. The report provides examples of the monitoring of actual conventional arms shipments to Egypt and Syria in 2011 and 2012, and of suspected conventional arms shipments to Syria in 2012.\u00a0 It also shows that where there is an open society, or at least a fair degree of access to government activities, arms transfers can be monitored and discussed without jeopardizing legitimate security policies.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/\/download.php?id=389\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/\/download.php?id=389\">Upstream Implementation of the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas.

These territories are among the richest in mineral resources of eastern DRC, with the exploitation and trade in minerals adding greatly to public revenues. Nonetheless, the concrete situations as presented in this paper sufficiently show that the development of the local mining communities has never been taken into due account.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/\/download.php?id=350\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/\/download.php?id=350\">Assessment of existing practices regarding end-user certification<\/a>\u00a0| February 2012 | UNODA | IPIS<br \/>\nAlready, in 2002, the Security Council called upon States to establish an effective national end-user certificate system and to study the feasibility, as appropriate, of developing such a system at the regional and global levels, as well as information exchange and verification mechanisms. This study assesses existing practices regarding end-user certification in a wide range of countries. It examines concepts, documents and procedures relating to the regulation of end use and end users of conventional arms. It also endeavours to identify political and practical obstacles to the development of an international framework for authentication, reconciliation and standardization of end-user certificates. Finally, it proposes practical guidelines to assist States in the development of a reliable system of end-user certification.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/\/arms-trade.php\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/\/arms-trade.php\">Transparancy and Accountability.

This report therefore seeks to clarify and discuss existing terminology and reporting practices for State regulation of international transfers of goods and services and for international transfers of conventional arms. It is hoped that this will also help contribute to the development of common international standards for monitoring and reporting international transfers of conventional arms.

Summary: Eastern DRC has been ravaged by war and violence since the mid-1990s. Civilians carry the greatest burden of the conflict. Women and girls are especially vulnerable to such attacks.. Hundreds of women and girls get sexually violated in their homes and at their workplace. Fuelled and motivated by Congo\u2019s minerals, rebel and army forces are inclined to maintain an insecure environment that ensures the continuation of the status quo. Congo\u2019s conflict minerals go through a convoluted, yet manageable and traceable, supply chain and end up in industrialised consumer products. The introduction of transparency and governance into the mining sector is advancing, but still much has to be done.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/\/att\/20111128__Bisie_FHilgert_SZingg.pdf\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/\/att\/20111128__Bisie_FHilgert_SZingg.pdf\">Bisie. A one-year snapshot of the DRC\u2019s principal cassiterite mine<\/a>\u00a0| November 2011 | IPIS<br \/>\nMuch has happened in the mining sector of Eastern DRC over the last year. President Kabila imposed a ban on all mining activities last fall, during which production fell considerably. As soon as the suspension was lifted in the spring of this year, the major global electronic companies stopped buying minerals from the region, provoking a de facto embargo on Congo\u2019s minerals with detrimental effects on the sector. At the same time, the Congolese government has taken major steps to restructure its army in the east of the country. These different decisions in the mining and security sectors have affected the nature and volume of minerals production and export and have reconfigured the security situation in the region. The consequences of these actions are discussed and illustrated with the use of the most important and well-known cassiterite mine in North Kivu called Bisie.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/\/arms-trade.php\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/\/arms-trade.php\">\u201cV\u00e9hicules civils militarisables\u201d and the EU arms embargo on Sudan<\/a>\u00a0| September 2011 | IPIS | TA-R | ASER<br \/>\nIn this case study we will focus on the use of European manufactured trucks in the Darfur region, and more specifically what the defence industry calls \u201cv\u00e9hicules civils militarisables\u201d &#8211; commercial vehicles that can be militarized. All armed actors in the conflict require vehicles to transport combatants through the vast Darfur deserts. Japanese Toyota (Landcruisers) pick-up trucks are the most common vehicles that are spotted in the region. Usually they are mounted with machineguns, and as such compose an important assault instrument. Furthermore, a wide array of military trucks or civilian trucks modified for military purposes are being used in Darfur, e.g. anti-aircraft guns are mounted on a variety of trucks to function as support and\/or attack vehicles. Some of these trucks are European models, assembled by a local company: GIAD Automotive Industry Company.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/\/publications_internpapers.php\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/\/publications_internpapers.php\">Conflict motives in Kenya\u2019s North Rift region<\/a>\u00a0| September 2011 | IPIS intern series<br \/>\nKenya&rsquo;s North Rift Region continues to suffer from violent conflict in which a series of actors are involved. Armed groups perform widespread and devastating raids against neighbouring communities. The strength of these warrior groups varies regionally and from case to case. Security operations are often characterised by their disproportionate brutality. Power figures are known to instigate violence or organise and finance armed militias. Uasin Gishu and Trans-Nzoia bore the brunt of the post-election violence in 2007 and 2008. The violence mainly pitted Kalenjin warrior groups against Kikuyu communities in a struggle over political injustices and power but also over economic discrepancies and feelings of ethnic antagonism.<\/p>\n<p>To see the sources of IPIS&rsquo; briefings, please\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/\/briefing-sources.php\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/\/briefing-sources.php\">click here<\/a>.<br \/>\nTo subscribe\/unsubscribe, please\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/\/newsletter.php\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/\/newsletter.php\">click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;\"><span style=\"font-family: arial; font-size: small; color: #333333;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Download IPIS_briefing_31-10-13 HEADLINES &nbsp; &nbsp; DR Congo:\u00a0M23\u00a0defeated,\u00a0FDLR\u00a0and many more\u00a0armed groups\u00a0to go Central African Republic:\u00a0violence\u00a0continues, UN officials see risk of\u00a0genocide Swiss company\u00a0accused of refining gold pillaged by Ituri armed group in 2004-2005 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; IPIS\u2019 Latest\u00a0Publications IPIS Insights:\u00a0Why businesses should assess human rights impacts from the outset of projects.
