Investing in communities
We continue to support projects in four focus areas: community health, education and enterprise schemes and the environment. The mix of projects is designed to address the priorities of our local stakeholders and align with our overall strategic objectives.
- We invest in initiatives that support the development of small and micro enterprises to enable people in the community to generate income or create or obtain employment. Our enterprise projects are run through partners with a proven track record in these areas.
- We support health initiatives that address preventable diseases by strengthening health systems as well as generating awareness and understanding of health issues. We also contribute to improving the capacity and capabilities of community health providers.
- Education and skills development are very important to economic growth and development. We focus on improving education standards through infrastructure projects (such as school buildings, classrooms, teachers’ accommodation), equipping students with learning materials, and helping to improve teaching standards.
- Our environment projects are aligned to the need to manage the environmental footprint of our operations. They are linked to the results of the ESIAs we conduct and other regular engagement with the community.
We supported over 70 projects worldwide and a selection from the year can be viewed on the Our community social enterprise programme map
Supporting women and enterprise
In 2010 Tullow sponsored The Clothing Bank’s Enterprise Development Project in the Cape Town area. During the year The Clothing Bank trained 73 women, representing an 89% retention rate. All of these women are now running retail trading businesses, mainly from their homes. The focus for 2011 is to continue to grow and they aim to train a further 120 women.
Detailed case studies for this project and others are online. Learn more at: www.tullowoil.com/casestudies
