Social investment is an important part of sustainable development. MEPAU generates community and social benefit through supporting local initiatives, projects and activities.

MEPAU seeks opportunities to create positive impacts. We invest in community projects so that local people can benefit from social and economic development, and we continue to look for opportunities to create positive impacts, particularly those that:

  • Assist with skills development, training opportunities and education;
  • Provide training and/or employment opportunities;
  • Support regional development activities, including partnerships and sponsorships;
  • Contribute to community projects, town services and facilities; and
  • Support a regionally based workforce.

These investments are sometimes voluntary and sometimes required by governments, or part of a contractual agreement.

Community Updates

MEPAU is committed to delivering benefits for the communities where we operate, including sponsorships, community partnerships, providing opportunities for local business, and attending local events.

We regularly update the community on our activities and initiatives through our ‘MEPAU in the Mid West’ newsletter.
