Gold—a symbol of wealth and security—comes at a high price. Mined in slave-like conditions, it fuels conflicts across Africa and drives environmental destruction in Latin America.
Seventy percent of the world’s gold is processed in Switzerland, where the industry has enjoyed state protection for over a century. Despite recent attempts at reform, the industry remains shrouded in secrecy. Follow us as we travel through Peru, the Congo, Dubai, and Switzerland to expose the truth behind this global trade.
Join CAP Executive Director Kathi Lynn Austin on her journey to the heart of the illicit gold trade. From collecting evidence at gold mines in the DRC to tracking smuggling operations in Uganda, Austin builds a case against Swiss processors and other players complicit in this trade.
