Project developers in the resource sector play a key role, ensuring the safety and wellbeing of communities in which they operate.
Projects maximize their responsibility through community investment programs to ensuring that basic services are provided.
These programs aimed to support and complement the work done by government agencies in many rural parts of the country.
With new additional mineral and energy resource projects soon to be announced for the country, projects view community investment programs as a key foundation of success by providing basic services which complement the efforts of government, especially in the areas of health, education, law and order partnerships, and enterprise development.
Hence, a specific session has been dedicated to Community Investment Programs, CANCONEX 2024, as part of PNG Resources Week.
The Session 4B-Community Investment Program will feature Kumul Petroleum Holdings Limited (KPHL), Mineral Resources Development Company (MRDC), Santos PNG Ltd, Ok Tedi Mining Ltd, Newmont Corporation and K92 Mining Inc., as they present their work in community investment programs within their respective project areas.
This will allow industries to provide a sneak peek of how community investment programs are viewed, proposals are assessed and ultimately implemented.
This session is aimed at shining a spotlight on the efforts that industry continues to play in ensuring that communities benefit from the programs.
With less than a week, PNG CORE assures all stakeholders within the resources industry to register your attendance today via www.pngresourcesweek.com or email events@pngcore.org to ensure their presence to learn from PNG Resources Week.
