On June 2012, an international panel of judges convened to carry out the first ever Peoples International Health Tribunal to examine Goldcorp’s practices in Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala. On June 15th, 2012, they delivered a guilty verdict, declaring:
“We find Goldcorp guilty for its activities in Honduras, Guatemala and Mexico, which we find to be seriously damaging to the health and the quality of life, the quality of environment, and the right to self determination of the affected Indigenous and campesino communities.”
