2. Your views on the private sector
presentations…..
In the presentations by the MEEA/Eguard (EIA consultants), and by
Shwetaung/Apache…..
What surprised you
What you were pleased to hear
What you disagreed with
What you want to know more about
Write it down and share

4. EIAs are useful when....
The project is large/significant and long-term e.g. >10 years
e.g
Large mine, hydropower dam
The government/regulator e.g. Ministry of Natural Resources
and Environmental Conservation (MONREC) has the
necessary resources to ensure the EIA is carried out by the
company/3rd party correctly
The company has the skills and budget to undertake the EIA
and the actions in the Environmental Management Plan
4
5. EIAs are NOT useful when….
The projects are small, short-term e.g.
Artisanal and small-scale mining
Small guesthouse
Light impact, temporary activity e.g.
Exploration using aerial, seismic surveys
(and possibly when) Activities are taking place in areas of weak/mixed
governance
In situations like that, you need the government to:
set clear and practical rules which the business and other stakeholders know
about
Include them in the licence conditions
Inspect and enforce
Receive and act on complaints
5
6. Not “EIA and SIA”: In Myanmar, EIA covers environmental and
social impacts

Assessment
To determine social impacts (Impacts on people), the
company/consultant needs to talk to people
Social impacts, environmental impacts, health
impacts etc usually cannot be separated: a single
impact assessment is required, with relevant experts
Not separate processes for Cultural Impact
Assessment, Health Impact Assessment,
Environmental Impact Assessment, Social Impact

16. CSR
CSR 1.0 – donations, philanthropy
CSR 2.0 – includes responsible behaviour
CSR 3.0 - ‘creating shared value’ (CSV) –
business activity which is good for profit,
good for society
Very confusing!!!!
That’s why MCRB tries to avoid using the
word ‘CSR’ and believes it should NOT be
included in Myanmar
laws/regulations/contracts….
16
17. A definition of CSR 2.0

The EU definition of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
is……
“the responsibility of enterprises for their impacts on
society”.

20. Creating Shared Value ‘CSV’
Creating Shared Value is the development of business strategies
that are both profit making and respond to social needs
A bank develops mobile
money services which
are accessible and
affordable for those
without access to bank
accounts.
A hotel trains and provides initial
support to local farmers to grow
vegetables safely, and buys them
for use in their catering. The
farmers sell the excess production
on the wider market.
A hotel trains local
young people in
English and hospitality
skills and offers all of
them jobs on
graduation
A company making
toothpaste and
soap runs a
nationwide
programme in
schools on
handwashing and
oral hygiene
21. Myanmar Shared Value Example – Supply
chain
Heineken and Building Markets:
Support for local SME supply chain
• Heineken partnership with Building Markets (BM)
• Aim: create jobs for communities living around the
brewery in Shwepyitha
• BM builds capacity of local SMEs to produce
competitive bids that can win Heineken tendering
processes for services e.g. cleaning, gardening
• BM trains local SMEs in:
• business management
• To submit tenders
• to meet their contractual commitments, including
compliance with labour laws, localisation of
recruitment and remuneration, and safety
22. When companies buy from local supply chains, they
create ‘indirect’ and ‘induced’ economic impacts

24. (Almost) all companies want a ‘Social Licence to Operate’
24
• Related to how much stakeholders like and trust the
company – especially community trust
• Cannot be written down on paper – so should NOT
be included in any laws
• Difficult to obtain
• Easy to lose
ေူမႈအဖပြဲ႔အသည္စမွေ ားဆာု္ရပး္ရန္္ပု့္္ျီးမႈႈ
27. ေူမႈအဖပြဲ႔အသည္စမွေ ားဆာု္ရပး္ရန္္ပု့္္ျီးမႈႈ
Gaining a ‘social licence to operate’ is about:
First addressing negative impacts (EIA)
Then increasing positive impacts through community development
Do no harm - not cause conflict between, or within communities, or corruption
Gaining a ‘social licence to operate’ requires
Listening to all important stakeholders’ needs and views, not just those with the loudest voice
Mutual respect and trust,
Communication - stakeholder engagement
Company personnel need to understand that
They are guests in the community and should observe a ‘code of conduct’
All company employees (operations, procurement, safety) and all subcontractors are responsible
for gaining and retaining the companies social licence to operate.
Activities to gain social licence (e.g. support to local SMEs, training) may have an upfront cost, but
should generate longer term profit/benefit for the company, making them sustainable and
supported by top management

29. Structuring company-community relations through a
Community Development Agreement
29
• Community Development Agreement
• Community Development Initiatives
• Voluntary Agreements
• Indigenous Land Use Agreements
• Partnering or Partnership Agreements
• Community Contracts
• Landowner Agreements
• Shared Responsibilities Agreement
• Community Joint Venture Agreements
• Empowerment Agreements
• Exploration Agreements (Canada)
• Impact Benefit Agreements (Canada)
• Social Trust Funds (Peru)
• Investment Agreements (Mongolia)
• Benefits Sharing Agreements (Chile)
• Social Responsibility Agreements
• Participation Agreements
• Socio-economic Monitoring Agreements
(List adapted
from the World
Bank’s “Mining
Community
Development
Agreements -
Practical
Experiences and
Field Studies”,
2010)
CDAs are best for long-term
projects, involving natural resources
• Large scale mines or oil and gas
• Hydropower dams
30. Different reasons for Community Development Agreements
30
• National legal obligation on companies to formally enter into a CDA.
• Papua New Guinea (Mining Act 1992);
• Mongolia (Rio Tinto, Oyu Tolgoi copper mine)
• Companies seeking access to Indigenous lands to negotiate the
conditions of access, or use, with the traditional custodians of that land
• e.g. Australia (Native Title Act 1996), Canada (agreements with First
Nations)
• Significant previous conflict involving the company and local
communities. An agreement has been negotiated in an effort to resolve
these conflicts e.g. Tintaya copper mine Peru (BHPBilliton)
• Because it strengthens the social licence to operate e.g. Ahafo gold
mine, Ghana (Newmont)
31. CDA example: 2015 Oyu Tolgoi Cooperation Agreement?
31
• Agreement between Oyu Tolgoi LLC and its partner
communities
• Provides a strong governance structure for Oyu Tolgoi and
local communities to achieve more effective cooperation
and address mutual obligations
• Sets out how the parties will work together towards
sustainable development in important areas such as water,
environment, pastureland management, cultural heritage,
tourism, local business development and procurement.
• Under the agreement, Oyu Tolgoi will make a contribution
of US$5 million every year to a Development Support Fund
(DSF) – administered jointly between Oyu Tolgoi and the
Community – for community programmes and projects
32. Issues that can be addressed in CDA negotiations
32
1. Engagement processes and mechanisms: What form will negotiations take, what form
is most culturally appropriate, accessible, etc.
2. Environmental, social and cultural impact mitigation and compensation
3. Access arrangements: to land, e.g. for exploration, etc.
4. Employment, training, business development and procurement: Critical to delivering
benefits, but requires careful planning and realism
5. Investment in social and economic infrastructure and institutions: Should be based on a
participatory diagnosis of needs, and involve partners with requisite skills
6. Financial payments and disbursements: e.g. towards a community development fund
7. Reciprocal obligations of parties: To one another as part of the agreement
8. Governance arrangements: issues such as representation of parties, mechanisms to
resolve disputes/grievances, etc.
33. Potential benefits of CDAs
33
Benefits for Communities Benefits for Mining Company Benefits for Government
Recognition of status as
traditional/customary
owners of the land
Acknowledgement of
impacts
Compensation for damage,
disruption, changes
Development benefits
Greater clarity around
company commitments
Greater security of access to
land and resources
Greater clarity around
company obligations
Reduced conflict and
company-community
disputes
Greater community
acceptance of mining
development
Increased development
contributions from
companies, and possibility
for government to ‘leverage’
this
Greater security for
generation of tax and royalty
revenues
Provides a framework for ongoing community-company
engagement
34. 2015 Protection of the Rights of National Races Law
Article 5 ‘hta-nay tain-yin-tha ‘should receive complete and precise
information about extractive industry projects and other business
activities in their areas before project implementation so that negotiations
between the groups and the Government/companies can take place.’

35. 2017 Myanmar Investment Rule 61
61. The (Myanmar Investment) Commission will consult with other Authorities as necessary or desirable in the conduct of the
assessment of a Proposal, and all such Authorities shall be required to make relevant personnel and other resources available.
Where the Investment may be subject to the Law on the Rights of Protection of Ethnic Nationalities 2015, the Commission will
consider any specific consultations that may be required with the relevant State or Regional Government or other stakeholders as
part of the assessment process or in connection with any conditions to be included in the Permit. 35
36. Difference between EIA and community development
EIA: Companies must identify all potential negative impacts and project
affected persons and take measures to
Avoid
Reduce
Mitigate
Offset
Companies can/are advise to support community development, and
‘create shared value’ to gain and retain their social licence to operate e.g
Buy from local suppliers and develop their capability
Support education of local people so that they can work in
company
Sponsor local community and cultural events
36
37. 37
Measures to mitigate the company’s
negative impacts
Compulsory, legal requirement
Identified in EIA, focussed on
impacts of the project
Included in Environment (and Social)
Management Plan
Needed to obtain legal licence or
Environmental Compliance
Certificate
Based on consultation of project
affected persons
Often needs immediate action
6 month monitoring report to be
published
CSR/CSV and philanthropy to address wider
social issues
Voluntary
Not about social impacts of project but wider
social issues, identified through discussion
and experience
May delivers business benefits (CSV) or be
unconnected philanthropic
(Ideally) undertaken a part of a
‘CSR/CSV/social investment’ strategy
(Ideally) consulted on with
communities/stakeholders
Builds trust to obtain/retain a ‘social licence
to operate’
May be no government involvement
Transparency desirable (and useful:
‘branding’)
Compulsory Impact Mitigation or Voluntary ‘CSR’
38. MCRB’s view is that details of community development (“CSR”)
should not be included in an EIA because….
Myanmar’s 2015 EIA Procedure does not mention ‘community development’ (or ‘CSR’).
Adding it makes the EIA process even more complex, both for ECD, and investors.
ECD/MONREC is not qualified or resources to approve an appropriate community development
programme.
EIA/EMP should identify/address the potential negative environmental and social impacts of a project
EIA is done by 3rd party EIA consultants, with expertise to identify the project’s negative impacts
Community development programmes should be designed and agreed directly between the company
and the local stakeholders.
Agreements should involve ongoing community company engagement to build trust.
Community Development Plans should be adaptable, based on feedback from the community and
changed circumstances, not included in a contract with government (an Environmental Compliance
Certificate is a legal contract).
38
39. My final message before lunch

When it comes to community
development and building a
social licence to operate, what is
important is not “HOW MUCH?”
but “HOW?”
