As the Philippines continues to expand its efforts to develop critical mineral resources, officials are looking to international models to help ensure these developments don’t take a large toll on the environment.

Philippine Resources reported , a delegation from the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), including Undersecretaries Juan Miguel T. Cuna and Joselin Marcus E. Fragada, visited Sweden’s Luleå University of Technology (LTU on April 2). The visit aimed to deepen cooperation with the university’s Centre for Advanced Mining and Metallurgy (CAMM) and explore sustainable practices in mineral extraction and processing.

Sweden is famed for its integration of environmental safeguards into its mining sector, using advanced technologies, data-driven monitoring, and rehabilitation programs to minimize ecological disruption. The Philippine delegation engaged with Swedish experts to understand how these methods could be adapted to local mining operations back in the country.

The trip comes at a time when the Philippines is looking to maximize the value of its natural resources, especially in support of the global demand for critical minerals. At the same time, the government has signaled an interest in ensuring that mining operations align with sustainability goals and climate commitments.

During the visit, participants also discussed opportunities for research collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and capacity-building — particularly in applying green technologies and responsible resource governance.

By strengthening connections with institutions like LTU, the Philippines hopes to strike a balance between economic development and environmental responsibility — a balance that will be critical as it pursues long-term resource management strategies.
