Commununity

In West Africa, it is common practice to talk directly to community members to get a better understanding of the villages surrounding a mine.

These communities follow traditional leadership and commune structures, and they believe their citizens will reap benefits from the mine. They often feel that their views are not taken into account. This oversight can lead to tension and misunderstandings.

These communities encompass many women’s organizations, youth associations, etc.

At the Nampala mine, communities and their interests were taken into consideration from the project’s beginnings.
