- Title
The "Creuseurs" ("Diggers"), at the Center of the World's Push for EVs, are in Peril: Part Two—Obstacles and Opportunities to Improve Conditions for Miners.
- Abstract
In part one, we reported on some of the shocking working conditions that the Electronics Watch team found on our visit to cobalt mines in the DRC. Now, we look at the vested interests in Congolese politics, the mining industry, the Congolese government's desire to regulate the cobalt supply chain, and what else might be done to improve conditions.
