Infrastructure
We build and fund positive developments for the communities in which we work.
Long-lasting positive impacts
We are dedicated to fostering robust communities surrounding our operations through substantial investments in community development, active participation and supporting public services.
Whether it’s helping to improve water networks, building schools or hospitals or helping to answer specific needs in specific communities, we deliver enduing benefits to our host communities. Our investment in infrastructure is designed to create long-lasting positive impact and enrich the lives of individuals in our communities.
Accessible water in Zambia
One of the best ways we can help local communities in Zambia is through the creation of better water infrastructure. We’ve worked on a number of projects that will help to ensure the communities in which we work have improved access to water.
“First Quantum’s help has been invaluable in bringing potable water to our community.”
