Extracting With Purpose: New research identifies shared value opportunities in extractives sectors

October 27, 2014
Shared Value Brings Purpose to Oil and Gas and Mining Sectors

The Shared Value Project is pleased to present to you FSG’s newest study, Extracting with Purpose, published with the Shared Value Initiative. This is a culmination of over a year of in-depth research, and we are eager to collaborate with the Australian oil and gas and mining communities to drive a global conversation around the opportunity for shared value within these sectors.

The study  provides a pathway for the extractives sector to deliver shared value—creating positive social outcomes by tying business success to the prosperity of host communities and countries.

After extensive interviews with hundreds of individuals and intensive research, the authors identified several ways to create shared value in the sector. Building local markets for byproducts created by extractive activity, improving local workforce capabilities, and developing local operating environments supporting the extractives sectors are just a few of the ways innovative companies use the shared value framework.
