Thabo Manne is the manager for social compliance at the Cullinan mine in South Africa. Petra Diamonds, which owns the operations, has embarked on a strategy to put sustainability front and center of its decision making, governed by its four pillars - people, planet, partners, and production.
Tasked to engage with the communities affected by Cullinan, Thabo sits at the core of that strategy, offering insight to how corporates, and the broader diamond industry, has changed focus to drive upliftment.
