Description

Life After Diamonds highlights the destruction and challenges faced in mining communities in the post-war diamondiferous regions in Sierra Leone. Cooperatives in the Kono district are engaging in reclamation of wasted mining sites into agricultural productive land to create food security, encourage wider industry adoption of Corporate Social Responsibility and promote improved legislation. Shot in March and April 2009, 'Life After Diamonds' was created by Canadians Larissa Stendie and Sheryle Carlson, partnering with production team at the Environmental Foundation for Africa.
