Kakuzi undertook a robust consultation process to evaluate its grievance mechanism system (SIKIKA) in order to inform the need, viability and functionality of the establishment of an effective Operational Grievance Mechanism (OGM). The consultations provided insights from stakeholders on what an effective grievance mechanism would look like from their perspective. This assessment led to the design of an OGM that ensures grievances are handled in a consistent and coordinated manner. As recommended by the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, the OGM has incorporated safeguards such as confidentiality, privacy, rights compatibility, equity and transparency into its processes. The OGM also incorporates a case referral system where cases that require the intervention of government authorities are referred in order to access investigation and resolution of issues. We also embarked on the development of a Human Rights Policy. Approved at the highest level of the company, the Policy provides a basis for embedding the responsibility to respect Human Rights across all business functions. The Policy sets out a roadmap on how the company upholds human rights through the integration of a human rights due diligence process of identification, mitigation and remedying of adverse impacts. The Policy also provides for gender mainstreaming and extends its commitments to supply chains such as contractors and suppliers who are encouraged to respect the principles of the policy.

Overall Environment

21. Briefly describe practical actions the company has taken during the reporting period and/or plans to take to implement the environment principles, including any challenges faced and actions taken towards prevention and/or remediation.

Kakuzi has been working with the Carbon Trust in the UK to carefully and scientifically document the amount of Carbon Dioxide our operations produce. By doing this we are able to identify any areas where additional remedial measures are required. The next stage is to measure the amount of Carbon Dioxide our operations sequestrate. Today’s modern agriculture must look beyond just being Carbon neutral but aim at having a beneficial impact on Climate Change. At Kakuzi, we aim at using technology to help reduce the use of energy. We also use modern agricultural techniques to minimize agricultural inputs as well as produce products in a manner that lowers atmospheric carbon. Equally complying with all local energy regulatory requirements, we have fully implemented the recommendations from a statutory energy audit. These include the use of efficient technology, training staff in energy-saving skills and monitoring and documenting energy usage. Kakuzi conducts annual state of the environment audits and environmental self-audits (copies of the reports are deposited with the Director General’s office at NEMA). This helps identify, monitor and mitigate any potential impacts to the environment, community, and wildlife from any of our operations. In supporting environmental sustainability and biodiversity our summary code of practice is to; • Comply with all environmental legislation. Assess the main environmental impacts of our business activities • Establish programmes and operational controls to minimize environmental impacts identified in each of our businesses • Provide appropriate training to our employees and other relevant stakeholders
