Free film screening
7:30pm, Wednesday 7th March
St Barnabas Church, Holden Road, Woodside Park
This Fairtrade Fortnight, joins us as we explore the next challenge for ethical consumers - conflict free minerals.
We love our mobiles but the production of phones has a dark, bloody side.
Many of the minerals used to produce mobile phones come from mines in the Eastern DR Congo. In buying these conflict minerals, the West is financing a civil war that, according to human rights organisations, has been the bloodiest conflict since the Second World War.
With footage from inside Congo’s mines and interviews with mobile giant Nokia, Blood in Mobile is a film about conflict, consumerism and collective responsibility.
As well as the film, there will be Fairtrade nibbles and market stalls with merchandise from ethical and Fairtrade jewellery companies.
It's going to be a great evening, so we hope you can join us!
