Golden Key is committed to providing opportunities for its chapters to contribute to the betterment of their communities and society as a whole. Learn more about opportunities for your chapter to participate in literacy-related projects. Golden Key defines LITERACY as an individual's ability to read, write, speak, compute and solve problems at levels of proficiency necessary to function on the job, in the family of the individual and in the individual's society.
These are some of the global projects and events we actively participate:

Golden Key connects members to a growing community of individuals and a network of opportunities and benefits including the annual International Conference, regional conferences, Facebook Groups, Twitter, webinars and many interactions in the academic and corporate circles.
“There are a range of topics that continue to occupy my thoughts after the ISLP experience. I feel the ISLP delegation on engineering broadened my horizons on a professional and personal level. This experience provided me with memories that I will be able to think back on for as long as I have a healthy mind! My wish is that more students may have the opportunity to experience such a wonderful time as I did. I want to thank Sasol Mining, my bursar, for providing me with funds to attend the ISLP delegation to China. Thank you Golden Key for informing me about this great program!”
