Communities and Indigenous People Working with communities is essential for our business. We recognize the impacts we can generate in the areas where we operate. We therefore promote and maintain close and transparent community relationships to hear and address their concerns related to our operations and to balance their needs with our operational objectives. We work hand in hand with communities, social leaders, and authorities to implement projects which contribute to economic and social well-being. At Canacol, we are fully committed to leaving a positive legacy in the neighboring communities. Indigenous communities are a priority for our operations. We fully acknowledge and respect their rights, consistent with the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous people. We comply with all the applicable legislation to guarantee a Free Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC). In conjunction with the Entretejiendo Foundation, an organization that is fully funded by Canacol, we promote human development, sustainable growth, institutional consolidation, and environmental conservation through voluntary and sustainable projects, involving communities, indigenous people and local authorities. Additionally, we meet our social investment obligations through activities that, among other things, improve access to gas, water supply, education, productive projects, and build or maintain public infrastructure, and support local productive and business development programs. Local Economic Development Local employment is one of the main positive effects of our operations. Through the promotion of local employees, we contribute to improving the quality of life of neighboring communities. At Canacol, we seek to comply with and exceed legislation related to qualified and unqualified local labor. Moreover, we promote and encourage local businesses to be part of our supply chain. We focus our efforts on strengthening their technical, economic, and administrative capacities, to help them to be the best allies possible, not only for Canacol, but for their whole market.
