Ensure the community has a cIMP, either by using CSR financing to develop one or requiring that the process be undertaken locally. Ensure that any proposed CSR project is scoped to succeed within cIMP guidelines.
Sustained Capacity Building
Safeguard the Social License to Operate and the firm’s reputation by building an understanding of opportunities and choices in the local community to absorb full ownership of projects resulting from deployment of CSR investments.
Intelligent Opportunities
Utilize Information and Communication Technologies for Development (ICT4D) in education and informing community members and other stakeholders on ongoing initiatives, work opportunities, and.CSR investments.
Leveraged Investment

Clear stakeholder engagement from project concept to implementation, documented and validated for each major intervention in accordance with reporting requirements.

Sound project management is critical to maintain focus and remain on track, stay within budget, and achieve the goals set in the project scope.
