Snapshot: On 22 February 2023, women farmers filed a lawsuit against the Ministry of Environment and Forestry with the State Administrative Court in Jakarta, Indonesia, challenging the environmental permit of Dairi Prima Mineral's zinc mine. They argued that the Ministry did not follow the proper procedure to conduct an environmental impact assessment. The farmers have long raised their concerns about the project's impact on their livelihoods, and the risk of structural failure of a planned tailings pond that would store toxic waste from mining activities. On 24 July 2023, the Court instructed the Ministry to revoke the environmental permit of the project. The case is ongoing.
