8. There are numerous mining-related cases filed within the NCIP, Ombudsman and the Environment Court. Concrete steps should be taken to break impunity of government officials (NCIP, DENR, LGU, AFP) by bringing them to justice – from administrative liability to criminal offenses. 9. Provide multi-level support system to women human rights defenders (legal, medical, psychosocial, security and economic) who are under threat, survived attempts to their lives, or whose family member/s have been killed or made to disappear in relation to their opposition to mining operation. 10. Make human rights track record a basis for the rejection of mining application; and commission of human rights abuses as part of the grounds of revocation of mining permits. Institutionalize Human Rights Impact Assessment of mining operations. 11. Pursue and support the creation of an international legally binding instrument on transnational corporations and other business enterprises with respect to human rights as mandated by the UN Human Rights Council Resolution 26/9 which the Philippine government supported. 12. The government, through its policies and institutional mechanisms of implementation, should have a deeper understanding that mining and minerals development is likewise a human rights issue – of both women and indigenous peoples. From this deeper understanding would come the change towards a more integrated, comprehensive and programmatic way of looking at and working on mining and minerals development. 13. Reframe the entire corporate mining industry into an industry that fulfills nationalist agenda of development, which put at its core equity, gender justice, and the transformation of the lives of the people, particularly the most marginalized. 14. Pass the Alternatives Mineral Management Bill for a more rationale, nationalist, equitable, community-focused, sustainable, human rights-based exploration and utilization of our natural resources. 11
