IPIS is a member of the Kimberley Process Civil Society Coalition <\/a>which works for better rights of communities affected by diamond mining. A new video<\/a> of the Coalition highlights that conflict diamonds are not a thing of the past. The video shows jewelers the testimonies of Progress, H\u00e9ritier and Ibrahim, community members from Zimbabwe, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Sierra Leone, who suffer the consequences of irresponsible diamond mining. Progress, H\u00e9ritier and Ibrahim were brave to share their story, but they are far from the only ones. Tens of thousands of villagers in diamond mining areas across the globe continue to live with conflict today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
