For the past two years, ARTICLE 19 has been involved in the production of the documentary "When Silence is Golden", which focuses on the impact of gold mining on local communities in Ghana.

This is a film about the struggles of ordinary people who want their voices to be heard; a portrait of a battle over the right to know, the right to speak and the right to participate in decisions that affect people's life and dignity.
