Laurentian University researchers —along with the Core Foundation— have shown interest in working with the Peruvian Government on the remediation of areas affected by mining activities, as well as on rebuilding ties with local communities.

At the end of the event, the participants will present an environmental remediation action plan, underlining strengths and areas for continuous improvement.
