Interview by Pauline Eiferman on our on-going project www.cheincongo.com
Vicious rebel forces, a corrupt government and oil speculators are an explosive mix in eastern Congo. And they are all threatening Africa’s oldest national park.
African journalist Seada Nourhussen and photographer Jan-Joseph Stok visited the Democratic Republic of Congo to investigate the role the trade in minerals used in cell phones has in the ongoing war in eastern Congo. The trip took Nourhussen and Stok from Amsterdam, throught Belgium, Kenya and Rwanda to the poor, artisanal mines in eastern Congo and the modern, industrial mines in Lubumbashi.
