For every hectare of land used for mining, Debswana has committed six hectares to conservation, a remarkable commitment by the country’s leading corporate citizen. Officials say other initiatives around water conservation as well as Diversity, Equity and Inclusion are gathering momentum. MBONGENI MGUNI writes
