South32

We are proud to invest in local communities and contribute to the social, economic, and institutional development of host countries and communities.

Our social investments are aligned to four key focus areas:

• Education and leadership – supporting lifelong learning and development, nurturing future leaders and promoting equal access to education, with a focus on science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM);
• Good health and social wellbeing –supporting community health and social wellbeing and promoting inclusion;
• Economic participation – supporting local employment, sustainable livelihoods and diversified local economies; and
• Natural resource resilience – supporting communities to thrive within their environments, conservation and restoration of the natural environment, and the use of natural resources in responsible and sustainable ways.

We work closely with community partners to measure, monitor and evaluate the impact of our social investments through our social investment impact measurement framework.
