Local Advisory Board of Hani i Elezit decides about priorities

Full Story

With the goal of strengthening transparency and direct involvement of key stakeholders, Sharrcem’s Management proceeded with the foundation of a Local Community Advisory Board.
This board was designed to serve as a liaison between the Community and Sharrcem in order to streamline the company’s support activities toward the local society.
The board is made up of different community stakeholders as well as two Sharrcem employees of middle management level and residents of Hani i Elezit and is responsible for the understanding of the needs and proposals filed by local stakeholders for financial support by the company, as well as the fair distribution of Sharrcem funds dedicated to Community Development.
This resulted in several local initiatives that improved the situation both for the community and the company.

The scope of ILAB is to detect and prioritize the needs of the Community and allocate accordingly, on a unanimous decision basis, the funds assigned by Sharrcem for the improvement of the community living standards in three main directions: Safety, Environment and Education.
