Within the scope of our operation, our social commitment is therefore geared towards 6 thematic areas which include; • Environmental protection • Health promotion • Safety • Education • Community development • Support for the national socio-economic development Environmental Protection In our quest to protect the environment, the Company aimed at maintaining high standard of environmental care to minimize the impact of our operations on the environment and the communities by demonstrating our compliance to all applicable legislations. We aim at prevention of pollution through continues improvement in our environmental performance in all our operations by; • Ensuring the safety of our products and operations to the environment. • Exercising concern for the environment where we operate. • Reducing environmental impact of our products and operations. • Developing and implementing processes and agricultural practices that are environmentally friendly. • Minimizing our consumption of natural resources and manage our waste through responsible disposal and recycling systems. • Working with industrial bodies, EPA and other stakeholders to promote environmental care among our partners. • Providing training for our employees and contractors to be aware of our environmental policy and objectives as well as measures that will be adopted to minimize impact on the environment. • Maintaining environmental monitoring programs to ensure compliance with all applicable legislations and to address our significant environmental aspects. • Paying attention and prevent pollutions caused by waste water, fertilizer/agro chemicals and air emission. Health Promotion One of the Social Commitments of our Company is to promote healthy standard for employees and the communities at large. In ensuring this, the Company has established a clinic which is patronized by all employees and the general public from the surrounding communities. The Company's medical team periodically engages in the promotion of;  Outreach programs in the communities to sensitize the people on the outbreak of epidemics.  Educational programs on healthy leaving lifestyles in the communities.  Sensitization programs to create awareness of the current trend of HIV AIDS in our surrounding communities and encourage free voluntary testing of individuals.  Periodic medical examination for employees and the people of the communities to know their health status.  Health talks on the local FM stations to create awareness of health issues. Safety Safety being one of the values and products of TOPP, our approach to issues of safety is extremely of high standard and our concern is directed towards our employees and the communities in which we operate. It is our desire to have safe environment both at work place and home to prevent personal injury and occupational illness so as to promote good health among our employees and the general public. As such, safety talks, hazard spotting, unsafe acts, near misses and behavioral safety observations are always part of each employee's annual target. Safety talks in relation to issues both at work and home are held every week by all sections in the company. The Company in extending this knowledge to the public has sponsored safety education program on the local FM station which is run every morning from Monday to Friday on topics such as road safety, environmental management, fire management, electricity management, health etc. These programmes are run in collaboration with the Ghana Highway Authority, the Ghana Fire Service, the Ghana Police Service, the Ghana Health Service and the Electricity Company of Ghana. Education TOPP is committed to ensuring that the children of its employees and to a limited extent the communities in its immediate surroundings get the best of education to equip them for the future. To this end TOPP maintains school facilities from Nursery to Junior High School on its estate. The school facilities are open to both employees' children and children from near-by communities. In addition to the provision of school facilities, scholarships are also awarded to employees' children and some brilliant but needy children from the community who gain admission to Government Assisted Second Cycle Educational Institutions. Community Development TOPP believes in the physical development of its environment especially the immediate communities that surround the Company. In our effort to promote development, the Company supports infrastructure and developmental projects initiated by the communities such as provision of roads, boreholes, KVIPs, electricity poles and transformers, renovation of school buildings and supporting other social programs in the communities. The company also provides technical and financial support to the MMDAs and the various traditional authorities in our area of operation.

It is clear enough that according to the Vision 1404, Iran would be positioned as the first rank in the region in Economy, Science & Technology. According to current situation a total increase of 300 Billion USD, would be required during the next 10 years, this is while if we consider the rate of GDP growth for our competitors like Turkey as zero. The main resources for such growth in GDP would be only possible if the government can promote the rate of Foreign Direct investment as well as the export of Iranian products and services.

Artistania is a non-profit organization which provides space and opportunities to encourage individuals with different cultural and social backgrounds to work together on artistic and socio-cultural projects. The association's goal is to promote the idea that cultural differences can stimulate inspiration, creativity and mutual learning. Therefore Artistania creates possibilities to implement and present this idea through its projects. We believe in art as a favorable tool for connecting people and cultures across boundaries, transcending languages and traditional ways of thinking, as well as allowing people to reveal their own realities to others. Artistania places special emphasis on activities such as visual and conceptual art, theater, photography, music, filmography, literature, dance, etc. Artistania with its artistic projects is not only willing to connect people across boundaries but also wishes to encourage acceptance, respect, responsibility and other social skills among individuals. The results of these art projects will be presented to the public in different ways including unconventional exhibitions, indoor or outdoor theater performances, film screenings, workshops... These artistic and creative events will not only give the participants of the projects a chance to receive public acknowledgment but also enhance and diversify the cultural life in the neighborhood and in the city.
