@FMaguwu We shouldn’t wait for new wording on the KP to address human rights abuses happening now in Marange. We should act now.

It can sometimes seem as if one person will not be very effective. However, change in the world always begins with an individual who shares what he or she has learned and passes it on to others.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

We should use our unique human intelligence to solve challenges we face, and never give up or tell ourselves there's no hope. If we have a positive goal and we're well-motivated to seek the well-being of others, no matter how difficult it is to achieve, we can remain determined.

@ShamisoMtisi @UN_HRC @SAHRCommission Great work Shamiso!!! We are in support of your work for transparency. We will work in the jewelry industry to have transparency. We don’t want to profit because of the suffering of others. In order to be responsible we must see what is behind all of our diamonds. ⭐️👍
