Its key objectives are to identify areas of risk in the inter- stakeholder relationships and to provide the means of ensuring equity in the distribution of mine-related benefits. · On present design, the project will be a small to medium sized operation, compared with the larger contemporary mining and petroleum operations in Papua New Guinea. Partly as a consideration of the project‘s size, this report deals only in passing with the project‘s macroeconomic contributions to Papua New Guinea, useful though they may be, instead looking much more closely at its effects within the District it is situated in, one of 89 in the country. · This emphasis is also helpful in focussing on the key social and political risks of the project at a time in the development of Papua New Guinea when contemporary political process has seen renewed efforts to de-centralise many of the planning and implementation functions of government to District level.
