Corporations, Communities, and Conservation: The Mountain Institute and Antamina Mining Company
研究了非营利环保组织山地研究所如何与大型矿业公司安塔米纳合作，通过金融机构的支持建立可信度，改进矿山规划以保护生态系统并降低成本。
In the late 1990s, The Mountain Institute (a small, nonprofit environmental organization) began working with the Antamina Mining Company (one of the world's largest mining companies) to help it revise its plans for a large zinc and copper mine. The collaboration produced a road design that not only protected a fragile ecosystem, but was more cost-effective than the firm's original plan. This article explains the important role that financial institutions played in enabling The Mountain Institute to engage Antamina's attention and establish its credibility as a source of objective expertise for and valuable partner in the mine planning and development process. The case raises issues that corporations, government policymakers, and environmental organizations must resolve for such collaborations to succeed over the long term.
