On September 17, 2016, Casa Pueblo hosted the Encuentro Latinamericano de Mujeres que Luchan por el Ambiente y el Desarrollo Sustenible, which convened a panel of women activists from Guatemala, Honduras, Perú, and Ecuador who struggle against abuses of the mining industry, suffering great risks to their lives and property.  The Latin American Mining Monitoring Programme (LAMMP) works to protect rights of indigenous communities, particularly women.
