As part of our youth empowerment initiatives, 15 young women graduated from our Girls in Dressmaking Apprenticeship Programme on Thursday, 15 August 2024, after completing four years of training in tailoring, dressmaking, beading, knitting, overlocking, embroidery, and fashion design. Each graduand received a complete startup package that included industrial sewing machines, half-piece GTP cloths, electric irons, sewing kits, tailors' scissors, and other essential items from the Mine to help them launch their businesses. The Mine also provided sewing machines, fabrics, and free access to employee buses to transport them from their various communities to the training centre. Additionally, we have established an ultra-modern vocational centre with a business unit in Teberebie, fully equipped for training and commercial garment production. We also used the occasion to welcome 20 new beneficiaries into our Girls in Dressmaking Apprenticeship Programme. This investment in young women reflect our purpose of mining to empower people and advance societies. By equipping them with essential skills and tools, we are not only addressing unemployment but also inspiring creativity, independence, and entrepreneurship within our host communities. Together, we are building resilient communities and making a positive contribution towards an enduring world. #AngloGoldAshanti #IduapriemMine #GraduationAndInductionCeremonyForGirlsInDressmakingApprenticeshipProgramme #YouthEmpowerment #CommunityDevelopment #SustainableLivelihoods

On Monday, 22 July 2024, we proudly held a historic groundbreaking ceremony to commence the construction of a state-of-the-art neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) at the Tarkwa Municipal Hospital. This initiative addresses the pressing maternal, infant, and neonatal mortality issues in the Tarkwa Nsuaem Municipality. Currently, the makeshift NICU has been insufficient, leading to congestion and increased infection risks among infants. The new 60-bed facility will be equipped with modern medical technology to provide quality healthcare for families facing neonatal challenges. This $1 million project reflects our commitment to improving survival rates for premature and critically ill infants, ensuring they have the opportunity to thrive. We are grateful to our partners - the Tarkwa Nsuaem Municipal Assembly, Municipal Health Directorate, NICU Committee, Nananom, and our dedicated healthcare workers, for their unwavering support. Together, we are building a healthier and more resilient future for our communities. Stay tuned for updates on the official commissioning and handover ceremony. #AngloGoldAshanti #IduapriemMine #NICU #Tarkwa #Sustainability #MiningToEmpowerPeopleAndAdvanceSocieties

Our Senior Manager- Sustainability, Stephen Adjei has urged the youth in the Mine’s host communities and Tarkwa to preserve cultural and natural heritage assets. This call to action took place during a Youth Sensitisation Programme organised by Iduapriem Mine in collaboration with the Center for National Culture (CNC) and the National Youth Authority. The event, themed “Preserving and Protecting the Cultural and Natural Heritage Assets of The People: The Role of Mining Companies,” aimed to empower the youth on their respective roles in preserving and protecting the cultural heritage within catchment areas of mining companies. The event brought together over 300 participants, including public officers, traditional leaders, leaders of youth groups, community residents and students from selected schools across the Tarkwa Nsuaem Municipality. #AngloGoldAshanti #IduapriemMine #SustainableMining

We concluded our activities in commemoration of 2024 World Environment Day under the theme “Land Restoration, Desertification, and Drought Resilience," with a colorful durbar. Our activities aimed to raise awareness on the interconnected challenges of land degradation, desertification, and drought, emphasizing the urgent need to restore degraded lands, halt desertification, and build resilience to drought. Among the activities organised included a tree planting exercise, field trip to rehabilitation sites and inter- departmental quiz competition. Awards were also presented to the quiz contestants and employees who demonstrated outstanding environmental management practices and commitment to good housekeeping and waste management. The durbar was well attended by stakeholders from the Minerals Commission, Water Resources Commission, Cocoa Health, Forestry, and Chamber of Mines. #AngloGoldAshanti #IduapriemMine #2024WorldEnvironmentDay #LandRestorationDesertificationAndDroughtResilience #SustainableMining
