They have implemented local, national and international control and decision-making strategies, they have carried out investigations into the environmental impacts and damages of mining operations, they have trained people to defend their environment and they have carried out legal actions so that victims of mining in the country have access to justice.<\/p>\n<p><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KwPeNG1Fadc\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Pedro Landa and his organization achieved several victories, even if they were short-lived. An example was the moratorium decreed from August 2004 for the granting of new mining concessions which was maintained until January 2013 when a new Mining Law which favored mining companies was approved. Another example of success was the citizen mobilizations in Yoro department in 2015, which resulted in the declaration of a municipality free from mining by municipal authorities. <\/p>\n<p><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vXR2MjNqk58\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><br \/>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-15773 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.justicepaix.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/png_capture_d_e_cran_21.png'><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.justicepaix.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/png_capture_d_e_cran_21-150x150.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"capture_d_e_cran_21.png\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>L&rsquo;environnementaliste Pedro Landa, fait partie de l&rsquo;\u00e9quipe de r\u00e9flexion, de recherche et de communication, ERIC-SJ, \u0153uvre sociale de la Compagnie de J\u00e9sus et repr\u00e9sente le Honduras dans la Convention-cadre des Nations Unies sur le changement climatique.
