This Policy Paper assesses the appropriateness of current interventions aimed at breaking the links between mineral resources and ongoing conflict and human rights abuses in eastern DRC and recommends ways to improve their complementarity. The central argument is that trade interventions have so far had limited positive impact on peace and stability in eastern DRC because they have not been accompanied by efforts in the security sector aimed at demilitarization of mines and the pursuit of economic crimes.
