Initiatives with indigenous communities

In our operations in southern Chile, we take care to develop significant relationships with the indigenous communities in the area. For this reason, our community engagement team has been educated to better understand the cultures of the indigenous groups. Together we have implemented a series of projects:

Working group with the Cuenca del Cabedaña Lof

This group has been operating since 2013 with indigenous communities in the Catripulli sector, in the municipality of Curarrehue. Among the agreements reached with this group, the residents of Curarrehue can purchase salmon at reduced prices at a point of sale managed by the Cuenca del Cabedaña Lof. The profits are used to benefit the more than 300 families that belong to these communities. The participatory budget program finances social investment projects in each community. In 2021, 100% of the budgeted investment was executed through a portfolio of projects valued at USD$31,860This group has been operating since 2013 with indigenous communities in the Catripulli sector, in the municipality of Curarrehue.

Juan Hueuñir community working group, Vilcún

Through this working group, launched in 2021, we have supported the start-up of local businesses to supply the Codinhue fish farm, organizing training in working, supporting agricultural projects, and providing biostabilizers for family food production.

Quellón coastal area community working group

During the reporting period, we organized an arc welding training course for 21 participants. Each participant received an arc welding machine and electrodes to practice their new trade.

We Newen Mapu community working group, Chayahué Calbuco

We have provided support at different stages of the construction of a traditional ‘ruca’ (communal dwelling) for this community so they could realize their dream of having their own ruca. In 2021, electricity and restrooms were installed in the ruca. 

Kawésqar communities working group

In 2021, we held several activities with Kawésqar communities. We held two training sessions on the Kawésqar cosmovision for company workers, supported the creation of Kawésqar service enterprises, and implemented a preferential pricing system for local communities. The groups also awarded student excellence scholarships, assisted in the implementation of the Barbarita Caro cultural center, and organized a cultural tour of two Kawésqar communities in Puerto Natales.
