"We feel that being “conflict-free” is not enough – which is why we support and invest in programs that help improve the conditions for miners and their communities, tailored to what is needed in the specific area and the specific mineral. This includes support to make the mine sites safer, ensuring that miners can earn a decent income, preventing and mitigating child labor (not just banning it, but actually ensuring that children can go back to school and youth can learn a profession that is not as hazardous as mining), and diversifying livelihoods."
