We are excited to release people-centred research solutions, for the mining industry uptake/use, through the Successful Application of Technologies Centred Around People (SATCAP) programme. The programme aims to understand the effects, impacts and challenges relating to people in the mining modernisation process as can be understood from all stakeholders perspectives. This entails gaining an understanding of how mining stakeholders are affected and impacted by mining modernisation systems, processes, and technologies of the fourth industrial revolution (4IR) with an intensive focus on skills needs, job impacts, and stakeholder inclusion. SATCAP further lends support to mines around the ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) agenda. Hence research solutions for 2022 have considered critical (ESG) ‘social-related’ aspects. Guidelines are availed to support industry identified ‘social’ needs.
