To mark the launch of Silence is Golden, a report on the exploitation of artisanal gold miners to fund war, terrorism and organised crime, we partnered with Chatham House in London, UK to host a panel discussion on addressing illegal gold mining. The conversation focussed on the expansion of illicit control and exploitation within ASGM, highlighting the pathways for governments and large-scale mining companies to drive meaningful change. You can watch the full panel discussion below, featuring a prestigious and expert group of commentators, including:
• Rt. Honourable Helen Clark (former Prime Minister of New Zealand)
• Marcena Hunter, Director of Extractives, Global Initiative Against Transnational Organised Crime
• Luca Maiotti, Policy Analyst, OECD Centre for Responsible Business Conduct
• Rt. Honourable Dominic Raab (former Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom)
• Brad Brooks-Rubin, Partner at Arktouros PLLC (and former Senior Advisor on sanctions at the US state department)
• Ahmed, Soliman, Senior Research Fellow, Africa Programme at Chatham House
