We invest in the present to create a sustainable future
Our social management is based on three pillars: Participation, Responsibility and Entrepreneurship, whose articulation gives us the possibility of generating the empowerment of the populations living nearby our operation, so that they can become the owners of their own destiny.
We are committed to monitoring the sustainable development of our main stakeholders, ensuring the viability of our projects through joint and responsible work between the State, our neighboring localities and ourselves.




Participation
We strengthen the participation of the population in the informative processes that we carry out, encouraging the interaction of proposals and common activities that respond to requests from local organizations.
Responsibility
We are responsible for carrying out our operations in a safe and clean manner, without generating social expectations and meeting the requirements in a transparent manner. We encourage shared responsibility and the active participation of the social organizations involved in the management processes.
Entrepreneurship
We promote local enterprises that contribute to energize traditional economies, incorporating innovation and generating sustainable development, which is the driving force for the creation of spaces for cooperation between the public and private sectors.
EMPOWERMENT
We make people responsible for their own development
GET TO KNOW OUR SOCIAL PROGRAMS
We implement platforms and tools that guarantee transparent, clear and timely communication for the population, reducing uncertainty regarding our activities. Meanwhile, we are totally open to receive any doubts or suggestions from the population.
Our communication channels are:
- Events and information meetings in the localities of direct and indirect influence around our operations.
- Suggestion boxes installed outside the Bretaña Base Camp in Block 95 and inside the District Municipality of Puinahua, through which we collect questions and suggestions from the population regarding our operation.
- Informative material that allows us to supplement our communication and consultation platforms and tools with graphic material specially designed for the easy understanding of the population.
- Information stations in different locations neighboring our operation, through which we provide relevant information about our social and environmental management and our operations to the local population.
The involvement of the population in the execution of our projects is very important for us. Therefore, we include the participation of the local population neighboring our operations as socio-environmental monitors and river guards to verify compliance with our social and environmental commitments, and the correct functionality of the activities in our operations, through the , Socio-Environmental Citizen Monitoring Program (PROMOSAC in Spanish).
PROMOSAC members are called from their different locations to carry out weekly monitoring and monthly training workshops, guided and supervised by our professional specialists, in and around the operations and base camp. Once their monitoring and surveillance work is completed, as well as their attendance to the workshops, PROMOSAC members return to their localities to replicate the findings and new knowledge acquired in their work.
There are currently 21 monitors and 3 overseers. The latter are part of the District Municipality of Puinahua, the National Service of Natural Areas Protected by the State – SERNANP and the Asociación Civil de Desarrollo Bretaña (Civil Organization for the Development of Bretaña – ASCIDEBRE).
We call for and promote employment opportunities for our neighboring populations. We formalize and energize the local economy by promoting the acquisition of goods and services from local suppliers, whom we advise on actions to improve the health and safety of the services they provide.

We have created a synergy with the Bretaña Health Center (category I3) to contribute to the fulfillment of its strategic objectives as part of the Puinahua-Maquia health network.
- We conducted a a Visual Health Campaign in localities of our area of influence, which resulted in 421 ophthalmological attentions to children, adults and elderly adults in 2020.
- In alliance with the District Municipality of Puinahua, representatives of the German Embassy and the Bretaña Health Center, we made a donation of medical supplies to combat Covid-19.
- We have implemented joint actions to strengthen the medical care response of the Bretaña Micro-Network in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic, through the donation of medical supplies and the training of personnel from the Bretaña Health Center.
- Furthermore, we have signed an agreement with the aforementioned Health Center, which has allowed us to establish a baseline to generate future actions to improve the nutrition of children in the area.

We are focused on generating greater opportunities for students from Puinahua.
- We undertook activities for teenagers from our neighboring villages during the holiday season.
- We improved the infrastructure of the Bretaña high school with photovoltaic panels.
- Through our Scholarship Program we provide higher education opportunities at the Universidad de la Amazonía Peruana and higher education institutes to young people from Puinahua. This is done thanks to an agreement signed with the Vicariate of Requena.

We contribute to the development of better living conditions for the inhabitants, in terms of access to basic services and physical spaces in the district.

- We financed the profile and technical file for the construction of the Photovoltaic Energy Plant for Bretaña, in coordination with the General Direction of Rural Energy of the Ministry of Energy and Mines.
The Bretaña loading dock, financed by PetroTal and designed together with the population, is a work for the benefit of the inhabitants of the Puinahua district, and for the service of the entire region.

According to a participatory process, we identify, design and strengthen together the productive chains of traditional economies in the district of Puinahua.
- Integral Technical Assistance Service – ITAS: Comprises aquaculture, animal husbandry and agriculture. We work as a team with the localities, through the participation of local development managers who participate in a training process and then carry out the respective replication in their localities, becoming the guides for the families and associations that participate in the project.
- Capacity building in public management for Puinahua leaders: Through various workshops that seek to guide and provide knowledge and tools on public management to local leaders, in favor of better management of resources and public investments for the development of the district.
