Based on the needs of communities along and near the project’s operating area, Poly-GCL Petroleum Group has undertaken community development work in 2019 with the long-term goal of ensuring the sustainable development and operation for the long run, and to benefit the local community by improving local residents’ living standard so that they can share the advantages brought by this project.

    Key community development activities include:

    1. Supply water for daily life to communities in dry areas. During the dry season, local residents have difficulty using water, and in 2019, Poly-GCL Petroleum Group insists on supplying water for daily life to communities in dry areas.

    2. Provide free diesel for electricity generators to villages around the contract blocks neighborhood.

    3. Provide saplings and organize plant activities in the contract area, to support the Ethiopian government’s policy of greening the country.
