At Galiano, we are fully committed to active community engagement programmes and encourage and support charitable donations in the areas of improving health, education and welfare within the stakeholder communities where we work.
We are committed to being a good neighbour to our stakeholder communities. We have an experienced, External Affairs department, based at the Asanko Gold Mine, who are dedicated to building long lasting positive relationships with the local communities.
The AGM’s community investment and social development initiatives create opportunities for increased vocational training, access to education and finance, and support for growing local businesses.
Our community investments are also focused on improving sanitation, health, and community infrastructure. All investments seek to provide benefits that will be sustainable beyond the life of our operations and include contributions by local communities - generally in the form of communal labor - to engender shared responsibility and commitment to the investment.
Our Community Development and Social Investment program is subdivided into four primary categories at the AGM: strategic community investment efforts aimed to build local capacity building, legacy community infrastructure projects, female empowerment efforts, and other community investments focused on larger infrastructure projects.
