The event was divided into two panels that offered a platform to discuss and analyze the necessary strategies to promote sustainable business development in Colombia. The first panel was dedicated to the energy transition, while the second focused on corporate social responsibility.
In that particular section, Charles Burgess, stood out during his participation, where he captured the attention of the attendees by sharing the challenges that The Muzo Companies Colombia have faced in western Boyacá in terms of sustainability. Burgess emphasized how through green social mining, various initiatives have been developed in defense of the environment, the promotion of alternative economies to mining, such as cacao planting, and labor formalization through alliances with traditional miners’ associations.
