Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The project addresses severe environmental damage caused by illegal small-scale mining, which has resulted in soil contamination and toxic sediment runoff. The Jimi Dam, a vital source of drinking water for the Adansi area, is directly threatened by this environmental destruction. The government plans to replicate this model nationally to restore degraded landscapes.
