ATM NASSA ALAMIN Book Launching – Mindoro Campaign

Dear Friends in the campaign,

Our greetings and prayer for a New Year of renewed commitment in defending our threatened environment!

CBCP-NASSA, ATM and ALAMIN invite you to join us in launching the booklet entitled “Mindoro Campaign: Defending People’s Rights, Protecting the Island Ecology” on January 23, 2012, at the Media Conference Room, 2nd Floor of the CBCP Building, 470 Gen. Luna St., Intramuros, at 10:00AM.

The booklet is a compendium of reports and case studies highlighting the victory of Mindorenos’ environmental advocacy at the national and international level.

The launching will be covered by a group of film-makers from the US doing a documentary project on the Mindoro mining issue.

There will be a press conference and a short presentation of the reports and update on Mindoro struggle against large-scale mining of Intex Resources.

Members from the civil society organizations can also take part in the discussion at the end part of the program. This invitation is extended to the members of the campaign network, and Manila-based NGOs.

Another launching is scheduled the day after at Calapan, Oriental Mindoro to be hosted by the Provincial Government.

We look forward to your attendance and participation.
