Early-career researchers worked with local communities during the @gold_matters project to re-imagine transformations to #sustainability.

For researcher Esther van de Camp (@EstherCa), gold is a window into an entire universe of ideas.

What impact of sanctions on AGR Ltd #Uganda? Refining from DRC (+elsewhere) made gold a premier earner of foreign exchange. https://t.co/cMs9dE8YA4

[Michael J. Kavanagh @mjkcongo]

Huge story w/ massive implications for Central Africa, whose gold market is worth billions.

Sanctions may shut down Uganda's main gold refiner, a major processor of Congolese gold. The violence around NE Congo's gold mines is appalling. https://t.co/feffVD3IJu via @markets
