Our Strategy

Our Community Investment program now provides more funding to fewer but more targeted initiatives that align with our business strategy. We’re interested in having greater involvement in the initiatives we support and extending the relationship over a longer period of time if appropriate.

In order to make the biggest impact in the communities we work in, we highlighted five priority areas that link to important areas of our business:

• Contribute to sustainable communities: Offer local solutions to local challenges or opportunities
• Create, maintain and preserve cultural heritage: Support cultural heritage in the Indigenous and arts communities to share and celebrate with the wider community
• Marine and coastal research, protection and rehabilitation: Work with the community to better understand and protect our marine environments
• Invest in technology and science: Ignite a passion for science and build the skills needed by our industry
• Educate and train our future workforce: Develop the skilled workforce our industry needs

Please note that though many of the applications we receive fall within our categories, we can not support them all.
