| This Policy Brief presents the results of a Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices (KAP) study on mercury use among small-scale gold miners in Suriname, commissioned by GOMIAM and WWF Guianas. Its primary objective is to give an insight into the knowledge, attitudes and practices of miners with regards to the use of mercury in mining. This information is important when it comes to designing policies that have a lasting effect on the reduction and finally the elimination of mercury use in artisanal and small-scale gold mining in Suriname. |
