The Cost of Technology: Unveiling the Shadows of the Digital Age in DRC (S08 E05)
TRIGGER WARNING: this episode includes mention of rape.
In Episode 5 of the Peace Corner Podcast, Larissa, our host, and Guillaume Kalonji, a passionate young climate activist from Youth For Peace DRC, a platform dedicated to promoting peace, security, and development, delve into the complexities of the digital age, shining a spotlight on the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
Guillaume provides direct insights into the experiences and realities faced by communities in the DRC due to mineral exploitation by tech giants like Samsung, Apple, and Tesla. With a significant portion of the world's cobalt and coltan supply sourced from the DRC, the impact on local communities is profound.
As we navigate the interlinkages between justice, mineral exploitation, gender, and conflict, we discuss the role of young people and the international community in advocating for change and raising awareness about the situation. Join us as Guillaume shares actionable steps towards ethical mineral sourcing, prevention of gender-based violence, and empowerment of affected communities in the DRC.
