Investor and corporate supporters
Whilst there are a complex set of circumstances underpinning the conflict, one of the key drivers is the presence of minerals that are mined in the region surrounding the city of Goma. Many of these minerals are crossing the border from the region into Rwanda and entering global supply chains of companies of key industries dependent on them.
In order to draw attention to the role of minerals in sustaining and driving this conflict the Church of England Pensions Board has issued a call to all investors inviting them to support the Goma Call for Peace. The Pensions Board will also be leading international investor engagement with companies operating in Rwanda and the region encouraging them to support the Goma Call for Peace.
