accounting for the risks unique to each location. It considers the impacts of our activities both within the mine fence and across the value chain, identifying potential human rights risk and acting as a mechanism to appropriately prevent, mitigate, and where necessary, take remedial action. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After approval in 2016, baseline assessments were carried out at all operations in 2017 and in the almost ten years since, we have matured the process by measuring progress, gap identification and continuous improvements. Encouragingly, the maturity levels of the multidisciplinary discussions on potential human rights impacts have been very positive. This is a testament to the priority given to the HRDD process implementation in recent years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Group level, we have introduced specific systems allowing us to measure our efforts to mitigate any potential infringements of human rights. We have also taken steps to ensure our employees understand our commitments through human rights training. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2025, a comprehensive, external review of our HRDD tools and processes was initiated to identify best practice, deficiencies, opportunities for improvement and alignment with international standards. The findings of this assessment, conducted by TrustWorks Global in Switzerland, will inform a revision of these tools to ensure they are fit for purpose in addressing emerging risks and evolving operational contexts, and include heightened human rights due diligence as applicable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are ensuring that we uphold and promote fundamental human rights where we operate. As part of our unwavering commitment to prevent any form of modern slavery, we are strengthening our responsible sourcing programmes. This builds respectful and mutually beneficial partnerships in communities where we operate, with the respect for and promotion of human rights as a transformative force for good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-cover is-light sticky\" style=\"min-height:100vh;aspect-ratio:unset;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1581\" height=\"1700\" class=\"wp-block-cover__image-background wp-image-2261 size-large\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/reports.anglogoldashanti.com\/25\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/HRDD_v2-1581x1700.jpg\" style=\"object-position:100% 42%\" data-object-fit=\"cover\" data-object-position=\"100% 42%\" srcset=\"https:\/\/reports.anglogoldashanti.com\/25\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/HRDD_v2-1581x1700.jpg 1581w, https:\/\/reports.anglogoldashanti.com\/25\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/HRDD_v2-1005x1080.jpg 1005w, https:\/\/reports.anglogoldashanti.com\/25\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/HRDD_v2-768x826.jpg 768w, https:\/\/reports.anglogoldashanti.com\/25\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/HRDD_v2-1429x1536.jpg 1429w, https:\/\/reports.anglogoldashanti.com\/25\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/HRDD_v2.jpg 1770w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1581px) 100vw, 1581px\" \/><span aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-cover__background has-background-dim-0 has-background-dim\" style=\"background-color:#928588\"><\/span><div class=\"wp-block-cover__inner-container has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-cover-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CASE STUDY: AngloGold Ashanti is unwavering in its commitment to human rights.
