People
Wyloo’s core philosophy is rooted in collaboration and respect for Indigenous Nations. Through active engagement and partnership, we seek to facilitate an adaptative management review process, ensuring that the Project design aligns with community values and priorities, while proactively identifying and mitigating risks comprehensively.
Radical Transparency
The glass box is intended to provide maximum transparency to stakeholders. We will provide real-time access to “whole of project” information to enable real-time compliance monitoring as well as robust implementation of adaptive management processes to communities and stakeholders.
Adaptive Management Review
A process that fosters consensus-building and feedback, prioritizing transparent dialogue and informed decision-making throughout all stages of the Project.
Data Transparency
With near real-time access to Project data, including environmental impacts, we will eliminate information disparities on our activities and address issues quickly.
Economic Impact
We empower Indigenous Nations by maximizing procurement opportunities and integrating partners into our Project, creating sustainable economic benefits beyond the mine’s lifecycle.
Partnering with local First Nation communities
We are building the Eagle’s Nest Project with First Nation communities through a co-management approach by forming genuine partnerships and mutual collaboration.
We currently have a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed with three First Nation communities: Marten Falls First Nation, Webequie First Nation and Constance Lake First Nation, and are working toward Partnership Agreements that will provide long-term economic development opportunities.
By participating in the economic benefits of our operations, we believe development in the region represents a generational opportunity for northern Ontario’s First Nation communities to achieve economic empowerment in this decade.
Our commitments
Providing Indigenous training and employment programs that guarantee employment upon completion of the program.
A minimum of CA$100 million in contract awards to Indigenous-led businesses.
Local participation
We will focus on maximizing local participation at Esker Site.
Social development
We support social development programs that are co-designed with First Nation communities to assist in the key focus areas of education and healthcare.
Community engagement
We implement community engagement practices that focus on informing and showcasing materials, plans and site maps to enable local communities to be involved in educated and informed discussions about decisions that impact them.
