Our People

Our team of almost 1,500 people works in 18 countries across 5 continents.

Community Engagement

Our mission is to improve lives by offering reliable and accessible electricity, to promote economic growth and social well-being through the elimination of poverty, and to make the places where we work better because we are there. To accomplish this, we are committed to engaging and consulting all relevant stakeholders, including communities and investing in social projects.

Social Investment

Our Social Investment Strategy, provides guidance to our businesses on the successful implementation of such projects. The key factors for assessing and managing the social environment where we work successfully are:

  • Enlist the communities, where our businesses are inserted in, as partners in our projects
  • Understand their specific environmental needs and concerns
  • Share information about our projects,
  • Invite social dialogue and solicit ideas for creative social investments
Managing the social environment

Agents of change

Through its Social Responsibility Management, the company establishes social projects in which the population assumes its active role as an agent of change for its own development, while the company assumes a role of the facilitator. Working for ContourGlobal during construction and operational phase of projects means: making the communities where we work better, because we are there. Ethics, transparency, respect. Respecting people, respecting differences and similarities, respecting cultures and beliefs, respecting animals, respecting the environment in which we live, respecting life.

Kibuye Elite School

Kibuye Elite School

The KivuWatt project in Rwanda has undertaken several sustainability initiatives to support the local community, including the construction of the Elite School in Kibuye. In 2016, after KivuWatt launched operations, several employees relocated their families from Kigali and other places to Kibuye. However, the Kibuye (where KivuWatt is operating) lacked quality educational facilities for their children and ContourGlobal stepped in to help build and set up this school in 2016. 

 

Built in different phases, the Elite School started with 30 students and is serving currently almost 200 pupils from nursery to primary school, providing access to excellent infrastructures and affordable tuition fees. The initiative brings numerous benefits to the community, including job creation, enhanced English, French, and computer literacy, and improved academic performance.

 

The positive feedback received from both parents and students serves as a testament to the Elite School Project's achievements. Overall, KivuWatt’s contribution has led to the maintanance of affordable tuition fees to ensure that education remains accessible to all children in the community
