Supporting Local Economic Growth in Ghana: Newmont
The Newmont Ghana Gold/International Finance Corporation Ahafo Linkages Program was designed to increase the participation of local businesses in Newmont's Ahafo Mine and bring development benefits to surrounding communities. Newmont, along with the IFC, applied the WBCSD Measuring Impact Framework to the mine as a way to understand the extent of the project's benefits and establish a rigorous approach to measuring, monitoring and evaluating progress in achieving the project goals.
