TAILOR-MADE PROGRAMMES

CPSL has always worked with a small number of significant companies to help them develop the capacity within senior management to respond strategically and proactively to sustainability challenges. This has involved multi-day seminar series, away days, talks and dialogues as well as informal advice.

Anglo American Social Practitioner Capacity Development Initiative
A three year programme developed for Anglo American by CPSL in partnership with the University of Queensland’s Centre for Social Responsibility in Mining , is designed to help managers respond effectively and innovatively to emerging socio-economic pressures and trends affecting the mining industry. In particular, the programme aims to enhance Anglo’s resilience, adaptive capacity and positive impact in the context of increasing expectations from host governments, communities and other stakeholders.
