Ep82 - Challenges and opportunities for sustainable mining in the Philippines

In this episode, we speak with Dr. Justine Domingo about the pressing need to balance the Philippines’ rich mineral potential with the protection of its ecosystems in the context of climate change and natural hazards. The episode explores critical environmental research challenges in the mining sector, including the lack of baseline data and the limitations of current monitoring frameworks. We highlight potential research pathways such as catchment-scale characterisation, sediment transport modeling, water quality monitoring, and many more.
