Why the regulation of directors’ duties in the #EU #CSDDD should not be supported even by those who care deeply about stakeholder welfare? 🧵 tl;dr. It is unnecessary and, perhaps, dangerous. @EUCouncil @EU_Commission @Europarl_EN #BizHumanRights #ESG novabhre.novalaw.unl.pt/false-promise-…

Thrilled to share my paper "The Tokenisation Trap: Rent-Seeking Risks in PPBs" was presented at #B2C2024 in Tenerife! Key findings: • PPBs may recreate "dark pool" dynamics • Bank history raises concerns for PPB abuse.

Dernières nouvelles ! @Glencore a payé 1 milliard USD d'amendes pour corruption en #RDC et ailleurs, mais les victimes congolaises n'ont rien reçu. Aujourd'hui, 3 ONG demandent au gouvernement américain d'indemniser 28 personnes directement touchées. raid-uk.org/rdc-justice-do…

Today @drcminingweek begins, but who's talking about #workers' rights? DRC's copper-cobalt mines are reaping enormous profits for multinationals, yet many Congolese workers at industrial mines earn less than a living wage. See our updated research: raid-uk.org/drc-cobalt-min… #DMW24

Meurtres, viols, déplacements forcés, fraude fiscale... De la RDC à la Tanzanie en passant par le Sénégal, les compagnies minières canadiennes sont accusées des pires crimes en Afrique.

Killings of local residents at Barrick's North Mara #gold mine in #Tanzania are escalating. Great to see @hrw reporting on this. @raidukorg exposed it as one of the deadliest mines in Africa for security related violence. It's time for an investigation. hrw.org/news/2024/06/1…

"Tous les rapports indépendants montrent qu'au moins, 80% des minerais qui sont exportés par le #Rwanda, sont d'origine congolaise".

Members of Congress urge US govt NOT to ease sanctions on Israeli billionaire Dan Gertler for corruption in #DRC. They say: "if sanctions are removed, Gertler will profit massively off his ill-gotten assets to the detriment of the Congolese people." #GlobalMagnitsky @Billbrowder

Ce #9mai , la crise à l’Est a été évoquée lors de #EuropeDay Minute de silence en mémoire des victimes et appel de l’Ambassadeur @NBerlangaEU à : 📌 arrêt offensive #M23 📌 désarmement groupes armés 📌 cessation appui du Rwanda au #M23 📌 retrait des troupes rwandaises de 🇨🇩

🇨🇩 Les USA condamnent fermement l’attaque menée par les Forces rwandaises de défense et le M23 contre le camp de personnes déplacées de Mugunga, dans l’est de la RDC. Il est essentiel que tous les États respectent la souveraineté et l’intégrité territoriale des autres États.

Communities in DR #congo effectively paying the price to save the planet from #climatechange. Companies mining #cobalt in the country do in such disregard for human rights of local residents and pay lip service to remediate their negative impacts on innocent bystander communities

Our recent report with @afrewatch exposes the grim reality of industrial cobalt mining in #DRC to supply #EV batteries: this is a story of toxic water pollution devastating the #health & #environment of communities. Here are our key findings. Thread 🚘 raid-uk.org/report-environ…

Thousands of tons of cyanide & chemicals released into Euphrates River at Çöpler #gold mine in Turkey. The heap leach pad, piled at the mine site for years, collapsed after a landslide. Euphrates is the water source for parts of Turkey, Syria and Iraq. See thread ⬇️ #Environment

For years, the Canadian mining monopoly #Anagold Mining and its local partner #Çalık Holding have been destroying agriculture, human and animal life in the Euphrates basin through cyanide leaks. Today, the disaster has turned into a blatant massacre. #İliçteKatliam #MadeniKapat

BREAKING ⏰ ⚠ Germany may be set to derail the EU law to protect the environment and human rights we were celebrating a few weeks ago. Chancellor @OlafScholz must stand up to @c_lindner’s sabotage campaign, and make sure Germany backs this law. #CSDDD #lieferkettengesetz


Bonheur Minzoto Reposted

For the #bizhumanrights and #climate crowd, please sign the petition telling Scholz that Germany must vote YES on the Due Diligence Directive #CSDDD actions.eko.org/a/scholz-germa…
