“Enterprises in an economy absolutely need to fully embrace CSR not only to stay competitive vis-à-vis others in other societies, but much more so as not to compromise the population’s interest in their usually insatiable taste for returns.”
CEO of the Environment and Rural Development Foundation, ERUDEF.
“The main concern is to ensure that development goes hand in hand with environmental protection, respect of human rights and the rights of the mine workers. This would improve on the conditions of the community and the protection of the environment thus the companies’ contribution to sustainable development.”
