Govt should lead by example – miners

Government-owned mining companies have been challenged to be exemplary by implementing visible corporate social responsibility programmes so communities benefit from their natural resources.

This was said yesterday by Mutuso Dhliwayo Zimbabwe Environmental Law Association director at a workshop for the African Initiative on Mining, Environment and Society.

“Governments should set very high standards when it comes to corporate social responsibility programmes so that other companies can follow what it has done,” said Dhliwayo.
