CWC Group cares about its impact on society

and has a keen focus on giving back to the regions

in which we work. As an international company, we

leave a social responsibility footprint wherever we

do business.

However, at CWC, our approach to charitable

giving is about more than writing a cheque. For us,

it is about becoming fundamentally involved in and

collaborating with local communities, charities and

other non-profit organizations on initiatives that we

have found to create positive change most

e�ectively.

“On behalf of the Board, Management and sta� of the secretariat, we would like to appreciate the supportwhich CWC have been giving the coalition all these years especially through the NOG event. We wish tospecially thank you for organizing this year’s ra�e draw at the NOG the proceed of which will be used forour community programmes.”

Gbenga Alabi, Executive Secretary, Nigerian Business Coalition Against AIDS (NiBUCAA)

“From Casa do Gaiato we’d like to thank CWC Group for the great support they o�er us, both in themaintenance as in the support so our young people can continue to study”

Raul Cánovas Benito, Volunteer, Casa do Gaiato

“We write to formally appreciate the CWC Group for supporting NiBUCAA and for giving us unprecedentedvisibility in every Nigerian event organised by your company since 2010. We thank you most especially forbringing Mr. Augustine “Jay-Jay” Okocha to put a face on the Coalition at the just concluded National Oiland Gas (NOG) Strategic Conference held in Abuja, Nigeria. We want you to know that the e�orts by theCWC Group will add immense value to our work in NiBUCAA. On behalf of the Board of Trustees, ExecutiveCommittee, Management and Sta� of the Coalition we use this forum to show our deep appreciation. Whatyou have done in the 2013 edition of the NOG will surely assist us in our membership drive because you haveprovided the NiBUCAA-led Private Sector Response the much needed window of opportunity with a view togetting more corporate bodies to enlist as valued-members. We thank you for your usual cooperation, forbelieving in us and what we are capable of doing! We look forward to a greater collaboration in the verynear future.”

FeaturedCase Studies

Colombia

Joint Initiative with Talisman Colombia

CWC Group is proudly supporting the educational sector of Colombia

by inviting leading universities to participate and share opinions with

government and operators in order to develop more engineering

programmes. The need for Colombian professionals in areas like o�shore,

LNG, crude oil recovery and unconventionals is becoming very important

for the sustainable development of the country's economy, and therefore

more universities are being urged to open related academic programmes.

Talisman Colombia has partnered with CWC to drive these e�orts forward

in Colombia. In 2015 we launched a contest with students from major

universities to develop essays on current energy topics. The winners

were granted an opportunity to attend the conference and exhibition in

Cartagena, learn further about the industry and network with current oil

operators.

Comunidad Zenu Joint Initiative with Fundación Gente Ecopetrol

Comunidad Zenu consists of 125 families which have been inhabiting the area

for the last 14 years. CWC Group and Fundación Gente Ecopetrol are working

together to support the educational development of the kids from Comunidad

Zenu. We have built a Cultural and Educational Centre for the children where

they can learn, do their homeworks, play and spend time together.

Mozambique

Infantario 1ro de Maio

Over the last few years we have been addressing the most immediate needs of

small children living in the Infantario 1ro de Maio. We have supplied the most

needed medication, blankets, baby clothes and toys, food supplies as well as

school and colouring books and pens. We have funded and supervised building

of a shaded area where children can rest and play and also repainted bedrooms.

Casa do Gaiato

CWC has started working with Casa do Gaiato in 2014. So far we have supported

initiatives aimed at both younger kids to help with their everyday life and slightly

older children to support their future development. We have bought and

donated clothes, toys, school, colouring books and pens. We are also involved in

an educational project funding a four year university degree on “Engineering

Geology & Mining” for one of the older boys to help him develop his career in the

oil & gas industry.

Nigeria Nigerian Business Coalition Against Aids

The CWC Group has supported the Nigerian Business Coalition Against AIDS

(NiBUCAA) for over five years now. We have been an active member of the

coalition as we share NiBUCAA’s belief that the private sector should respond to

the growing challenges of HIV/AIDS ensuring equal rights and opportunities for

employees infected or a�ected by the virus.

CWC Group has provided regular support through:

This is a very important initiative and one we are extremely proud to support.

Given our long history of working in Africa and out extensive local contacts we

are keenly aware of the impact of HIV and AIDS within the region.

Practical Nigerian Content Youth Workshop

In partnership with the Nigerian Content Development & Monitoring Board

(NCDMB) and the Bayelsa State Government, the CWC Group has developed

the annual Practical Nigerian Content Youth Workshop. Working closely with

local youth groups and societies, student organisations and professional

associations, the Youth Workshop brings together over 300 Bayelsan graduates

from across the state to this free-to-attend forum.

In a country with an unemployment rate as high as 23% for graduates, and close

to 60% youth unemployment in rural areas, the Youth Workshop provides a

valuable platform for local youths to hear from respected figures within

business, industry and academia, providing them insights and useful tools to

help them enter the oil and gas industry, or launch their own businesses,

capitalising on the opportunities present in their own communities and Bayelsa

as a whole. The Workshop also highlights further training opportunities

available as well as initiatives provided by local government and the NCDMB

that will enable them to further enhance their employment prospects.

Leveraging on CWC’s close relationship with the Nigerian Business Coalition

Against AIDS (NiBUCAA), the workshop also provides an opportunity to o�er

free HIV/AIDS testing to attendees.
