By examining stakeholder perceptions and the factors influencing community involvement in CSR decisions, the study offers valuable information for improving corporate-community relations in the mining sector. The findings can help mining companies develop more effective CSR strategies, potentially reducing conflicts and enhancing the positive impact of their investments on local communities.
