Working with local and Indigenous communities is particularly important in terms of: • Disclosing and appropriately communicating accurate and timely information • Maintaining an open dialogue, so all parties can fully understand each other’s views and concerns • Engaging in decision making around our activities • Collaborating on issues of mutual interest • Securing and maintaining our social licence to operate Those responsible for engagement with local and Indigenous communities are trained to take a peoplecentred approach to dialogue that is focused on relationships, rather than on issues.
