The sector plays a critical role in uplifting local communities, supporting national development goals, and contributing meaningfully to public revenues and infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We recognise the challenges facing the natural diamond industry today, including macroeconomic factors and shifting consumer preferences. These challenges require industry-wide action that harnesses the capabilities of the full diamond value chain \u2014 from producer governments and miners to manufacturers, traders and retailers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We affirm our common understanding that effective action is urgently required to build and sustain consumer demand for natural diamonds. We commit to working together to help ensure that a new generation of consumers is not only aware of the rarity and natural beauty of diamonds, but also of the positive impact they have made \u2014 and continue to make \u2014 in communities and producer nations across the globe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As such, we the undersigned agree that marketing is a fundamental pillar of the natural diamond industry\u2019s future. We jointly resolve to exclusively promote natural diamonds through a global, generic marketing effort focused on key consumer regions. This effort must be informed by a shared vision, shaped by inclusive governance, and backed by sufficient and sustained resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We acknowledge the valuable work already undertaken, including by the Natural Diamond Council, through previous generic marketing activity and agree that further funding is essential to build upon this foundational work. A more robust strategy must be developed with urgency and executed swiftly by the Natural Diamond Council to support the peak sales season of 2025 and beyond.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To this end, the undersigned producer governments, producer companies and industry intend to contribute the equivalent to 1% of the annual revenues generated from rough diamond sales to this initiative. It is for individual governments to determine with industry the arrangements for implementation of this contribution.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All contributions will be directed to the Natural Diamond Council, which shall be tasked with overseeing and executing the global generic marketing strategy. The mechanics of effecting contributions will be determined in due course and will be subject to prior legal review. The governance of the Natural Diamond Council will be reviewed to ensure it reflects the contributions of its members. The contributions and the outcomes of the marketing initiatives will be assessed at least annually by the members of the Natural Diamond Council.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also recognize that the success of this initiative relies not only on government contributions but also on the active participation of stakeholders across the diamond value chain. We therefore call upon miners, manufacturers, traders, retailers and other industry actors to engage in, and meaningfully contribute to, the success of this endeavor, which is essential to help secure a brilliant future for natural diamonds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Together, through a shared vision, mutual support, and decisive action, we commit to preserving and enhancing the legacy and promise of natural diamonds for generations to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Signed on this 18th day of June, 2025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a watershed step to boost consumer demand for natural diamonds, GJEPC joined top diamond-producing nations and industry bodies in signing the Luanda Accord on 18th June 2025.
