Conflict-free diamonds are diamonds mined, cut, and traded without any involvement in human rights violations, war, or violence. These diamonds are also referred to as "blood diamonds" or "war diamonds" because of their association with armed conflict. The term "conflict-free" is used to describe diamonds that do not contribute to the financing of rebel groups or other forms of violence and human rights violations.

 

The use of diamonds in conflict is not a new phenomenon. In the late 1990s, Sierra Leone experienced a brutal civil war fueled by the sale of diamonds from the country's mines. The conflict resulted in the death and maiming of thousands of people, and it became clear that the diamond trade was being used to finance armed conflict.

 

In response, the international community created the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme in 2003, an international certification system designed to prevent the trade in conflict diamonds. The Kimberley Process consists of a set of rules and procedures that diamond-producing countries must follow to ensure their diamonds are conflict-free. The process includes a series of checks and balances to ensure that diamonds are mined, cut, and traded without involvement in human rights violations, war, or violence.

One of the core principles of the Kimberley Process is transparency. Diamond producers must provide detailed information about their diamond production and exports, including the origin of the diamonds, their mining method, and the supply chain from mine to end consumer. This information is then verified by independent auditors, and diamonds that do not meet the standards established by the Kimberley Process are not eligible for certification.
