Title: Digging in the Dirt: Child Miners in Sierra Leone's Diamond Industry
Summary: Based on the experiences of child miners interviewed in over two dozen artisanal diamond mining sites, this report describes how the rights of child laborers are grossly violated while working in these mines. Drawing from over 200 interviews with diamond diggers, mining actors, local chiefs, mine union representatives, community leaders and members of mining communities, the report seeks to deepen understandings of the practice of child mining and inform immediate responses that are necessary to eliminate this exploitative practice.
