Our Social Commitment: To ensure that all the project affected persons have a more improved livelihood than they did before the project activities started. We are undertaking a number of livelihood restoration initiatives to achieve this.
Stakeholder engagement plans (SEPs) have been set up to establish and maintain open and constructive relationships between the project’s partners and stakeholders, and to help operations run smoothly, taking account of environmental and social impacts. Quarterly stakeholder engagement meetings are held with many groups, and they are regularly reviewed to ensure that they properly take account of the questions raised by the participants themselves.
Many methods and tools are used to promote dialogue, including village meetings, either with individuals or small groups, site visits and guided tours. The written and visual communication materials have been adapted to the audience, using traditional media, including local radio, telecoms and websites.
