OUR DELIVERY APPROACH
QUALITY EDUCATION
Our investment results in enhanced economic participation, contributing to growth and improved quality of
life within our operating geographies and fenceline communities.
Our social investment (SI) approach is brought to life through a multi-pronged, multi-year methodology to
respond to the priorities of our fenceline communities. This is to ensure that we deliver impactful and relevant
programmes which create shared value among various stakeholders. This is accomplished through the
intersection of Sasol9s intent with our fenceline community priorities and national, provincial and local
priorities in our operating geographies and fenceline communities.
