A DIAMOND IS BORN DOCUMENTARY

“A Diamond is Born” premieres in New York, narrating the impact of natural diamonds on Botswana
“A Diamond is Born”, an upcoming short documentary that showcases the rarity, unique craftsmanship and value of natural diamonds, and how natural diamonds support livelihoods in Botswana; premiered on 17 September 2025 at the Frick Collection Museum, New York City, USA, attracting leaders of the diamond industry from across the world!
The Minister of Minerals and Energy, Honourable Minister Bogolo Joy Kenewendo was among dignitaries who witnessed this first public presentation, and had the opportunity to give a Keynote speech, placing Botswana at the core of the natural diamond conversation; stressing that Botswana’s diamonds are sourced in a manner that is respectful of human rights.
“And as we look ahead, Botswana’s vision is clear: to continue building an industry that is as resilient as it is responsible, as innovative as it is inclusive. We will invest in technologies that deepen transparency, in branding that amplifies the uniqueness of natural diamonds, and in partnerships that ensure sustainability remains at the heart of everything we do”, said Minister Kenewendo.
“A Diamond is Born” created by Jared Jewelers with Oscar winning filmmaker, Luc Jacquet, coincides with the launch of Storied Diamond Desert Sands of Eternity™ - a campaign by Jared Jewelers, displaying an exquisite collection from Botswana diamonds, each with a QR code, assisting consumers through blockchain technology to track the evolution of each piece from the depths of the earth in Botswana to a jewellery box in New York City and many other capitals.
