Mining, sex and scandal

posted by Neil Walmsley on September 18, 2008

Knew I'd get your attention with the sex and scandal bit. This blog is not about sex, that’s a bit of false advertising, but it is about mining and scandal. Specifically it’s actually about the activities of mining companies, in particular GoldCorp (there’s a James Bond evil company name for you..), and Rio Tinto, and whether they are immune from society's concerns.

Ubuntu - I am because you are

posted by Neil Walmsley on September 22, 2008

Ubuntu, a Bantu word, defines what it means to be truly human, and will be the theme of an annual congress being held in South Africa in early 2009, by Rights and Humanity.

Rights and Humanity is establishing an Annual Congress to inspire, inform and empower leaders at all levels of society. The aim of the Congress is to strengthen realisation of human rights and responsibilities as a legal framework and moral compass for solutions to global challenges.

The first Annual Congress will be held in Cape Town in co-operation with the South African Human Rights Commission, and is under the patronage of Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu. It will last from the 23rd to the 25th of February 2009.
