Living and working with local communities We interact with many diverse communities around the world and we recognise the importance of involving local communities in decisions that affect them. In short, listening to the needs and concerns of local people helps us to run a more successful business. We seek to engage openly and honestly with communities to address concerns and we respect local laws, customs and culture. Before we start operating in an area, we conduct studies with local people, governments and other stakeholders to determine both the potential positive and negative impacts of our operations on the community. Topics covered include: indigenous peoples and cultural diversity resettlement community health our funding of community initiatives our contribution to the regional economy artisanal and small-scale mining operations conducted by other companies in the region Aboriginal News - Australia Brisbane Aboriginal-Sovereign EmbassyDINGO - Deadly Indigenous Non Government Organisation Iris Ray Nunn10,000 AMEND Jarmbi Githabul
