Three things can be done:
Have in mind that child mining labor exists and touches your daily lives through the electronic devices that you cherish.
Create or support efforts of social movements to address the root causes of this problem, including poverty and lack of free education in the mining zones.
Write to your electronic manufacturers requesting them to map their supply chains and avoid using minerals emanating from child labor.
Your actions, while they may seem small, could have a huge effect for hundreds of thousands of children in the Congo.
