Presentation at the European Parliament, why it doesn't work in Angola. An example from the Lunda provinces. There are 4 main problems- Hate-campaign against the Congolese Garimpeiros: In its strive to control the diamond areas, Angolan government has started a campaign against Congolese ‘garimpeiros’ who are digging for diamonds in the Lunda provinces; chasing them with tens of thousands across the border, using brutal violence.
- Access to land: Angolan government is in high speed selling concessions, is trying to get rid of the artisanal miners.
- Environmental problems: By digging off riverbanks on a massive scale the course of rivers is in some cases completely relocated, erosion, non-sustainable exhaustion of the soil, etc.
