Mining firms are urged to provide leadership opportunities and platforms to women in leading the mining sector, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) Secretary Antonia Yulo-Loyzaga said.

The mining industry is encouraged to take action to enhance women’s participation in terms of conservation and restoration projects in the sector, she said. This is to recognize the knowledge of indigenous women and other women in the local ecosystem, Yulo-Loyzaga added.

The DENR chief also mentioned that establishing gender-responsive policies builds corporate resilience and ensures that the upheld practices do not unintentionally cause harm to women.

Furthermore, gender-responsive approaches to community assessments, consultation, and benefit-sharing contribute to the effectiveness of climate mitigation and adaptation strategies in the mining sector.

She also noted that in developing environmental policies, social development, and women’s inclusion in the discussion happening on both national and local levels about mining, climate, human security, and the environment, it is important to protect women’s rights.

Meanwhile, the non-government organization Diwata (Women in Resource Development) advocates responsible development of the natural resources in the country, particularly in industries such as mining, oil and gas quarrying.

Earlier, the DENR expressed its intention to review the gender gap in the mining sector following challenges faced by women in the industry.
