New Blood Diamonds Project Launch!

I work for a Uk registered charity Gemin-i (charity number- 1122931, www.gemin-i.org). We run an award-winning online learning community for teachers and students, Rafi.ki (www.rafi.ki) with schools registered from 115 countries.

This Wednesday Rafi.ki is launching an exciting new project- Blood Diamonds. Focusing on Diamonds, Gold and Coltan and working with partners in affected areas, students will find out the real effects of the purchasing decisions that they make themselves.

For example, they will discover the role of Coltan in mobile phones, computers and Playstations and the manner in which its trade funds human rights abuses in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Blood Diamonds will give students a platform to take part in whole school activities and awareness raising campaigns about the effects of buying habit on poverty reduction.

If you are interested or have any questions please take a look at our website http://www.rafi.ki/site/register.php or contact me.
