For many years, LMN member group Down to Earth has been working with JATAM, the Indonesian Mining Advocacy Network on a variety of mining campaigns in Indonesia. Following the launch of Indonesian network JATAM’s ‘Deadly Coal’ campaign early in 2010, DTE and JATAM decided to bring the campaign directly to the UK and Europe. There is, they felt, no substitute for hearing directly from those working on these issues ‘at the coal face’.
