Why we support education
Sasol recognises the role of education in
reducing poverty by preparing young men
and women to participate in the economic
growth and development in countries and
regions where Sasol operates.
We further acknowledge the rapid pace of change
in the world of work. Our contribution through
educational interventions focuses on building skills
that are relevant and aligned with the changes
in the micro and macro environments including
conducting and funding research, which is looking
at the future world of work as well as contributing
to the development of countries where we operate.
These interventions include life skills and psychosocial support to deal with any changes our learners
may struggle with during their studies. This is done
by creating strong foundations for STEM education to
increase participation at basic education levels up until
preparation for employment and entrepreneurship.
