Social Management
At Austral, we aim to create a positive impact on our surroundings, contributing to the improvement of the quality of life of the communities near our operations.
We carry out social responsibility programs in the communities where our production plants are located, such as Coishco, Chancay, Pisco, and Ilo, as well as in our offices in Lima and Callao.
Our social management is framed within the following lines of action: a) Education and Employment Promotion, b) Health and Nutrition, c) Promotion of Environmental Care, and d) Social Development.
We promote the creation of shared value through initiatives co-created with the community and the building of good relationships with leaders and members of the communities, enabling us to continue innovating. Moreover, we form alliances to promote sustainable development hand in hand with our stakeholders, thus making a positive impact in favor of the most vulnerable groups.
Below we present the social responsibility programs that we have been executing:
