Calibar’s ambition is to create long-term relationships with Indigenous peoples based on trust and mutual benefit. Respecting and partnering with Indigenous peoples aligns with Calibar’s purpose of bringing people together to build a better world, our focus on delivering long-term social value and our commitment to working with integrity.

Our approach is founded in a deep respect for the distinct cultures, rights, perspectives and aspirations of Indigenous peoples. We will be guided by the aims of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous peoples. It is through the commitments set out in our Policy Statement that we aim to support reconciliation with Indigenous peoples and contribute to improved social, economic and environmental outcomes.

We seek to connect with Indigenous peoples to better appreciate the historical, legal, social, environmental, cultural and political landscapes where we operate or seek to operate, and how to better manage the environment we share. Through cultural awareness workshops and induction programs, we aim to facilitate an understanding and appreciation of Indigenous peoples’ rights and the connections and sensitivities associated with Indigenous cultural heritage.
