The workshop brought together representatives of academic institutions, local governments, businesses, non-governmental organizations, and business-support institutions. The aim of the meeting was to discuss the hashtagchallenges and best practices related to Social Licence to Operate (SLO) and to present the objectives of the RM-SLO-PLUS-HUB project, which focuses on developing tools to strengthen dialogue between the extractive industry and local communities.
Following the presentations, participants engaged in roundtable discussions, sharing experiences on communication with local communities, the role of environmental education, and responsible industrial planning. The non-governmental organization Polish Association for the Valuation of Mineral Deposits (https://polval.org.pl/) was an active partner of the event, contributing to both organizational and discussion activities.
The event was co-financed in part by VALORWASTE project which was presented during poster session and discussed throughout the workshop.
