Members of the Chad consortium support health and education initiatives on behalf of the community and the project employees.
These initiatives include HIV/AIDS and malaria education and prevention programs. Anti-cholera programs have focused on improved sanitation and potable drinking water. The partners also have built, refurbished and supplied clinics in the vicinity of the Doba oil fields and transported nurses to dozens of locations to administer polio vaccinations.
In the workplace, the partners have focused on the training and mentoring of national employees. And throughout the project, the consortium has worked in close consultation with local communities and placed a strong emphasis on contracting locally for maintenance, supplies, and other goods and services.
