Furthermore, aligned with our business strategy, we aim to
reflect our drive to incorporate sustainability focus areas
deeper into social investment activities while focusing on
issues that are important to stakeholders.
Through our social investment reporting process we
seek to facilitate inclusive and meaningful dialogue with
beneficiaries, stakeholders and partners so that we
manage expectations and gain insight about how we are
experienced. We engage regularly with a broad stakeholder
base on issues of significant interest and impact, including
our performance, decisions and activities in relation to
environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues.
While this report may be of interest to all our stakeholders,
it is primarily aimed at addressing issues of interest to
stakeholders with regards to our social investment activities
in our fenceline communities.
This report for the period 1 July 2019 to 30 June 2020
is aligned with our 2020 annual Integrated Report and
Sustainability Report.
