“The Vatican on March 20, 2026, launched an international campaign encouraging divestment from the mining sector, urging faith-based investors to pull out unless companies uphold workers’ rights and environmental protection.”

[COMMENTARY] What nearly ALL news reports of the new Vatican directive to disinvest from mining leave out is “unless companies uphold workers’ rights and environmental protection.” Many new mines in developed and developing countries have indigenous peoples or governments as co-investors who are also intimately involved in mine design, environmental protection, and workers’ rights!
