Governance and leadership

PETROPERÚ, to make a sustainable change, seeks to enhance the capacities of positive leaders who ensure the peace, well-being and development of their localities, encouraging participation in global governance issues.

COMMUNAL GOVERNANCE

  • Accreditation of communal authorities in the North Peruvian Pipeline. In order to make the populations of Section II of the North Peruvian Pipeline visible, we have supported the accreditation of 13 native communities, so that they can access different programs and projects of the State. Likewise, they have been working on the strengthening and institutionalization of the communities in the other sections of the ONP, supporting their legal sanitation and validation of the validity of power of the communal authorities.
  • Thirty-nine peaceful coexistence agreements signed with communities of the North Peruvian Pipeline allow progress in the consolidation of an alliance for social peace, public order, the well-being of the Amazonian communities and the responsible development of the hydrocarbon sector.
  • The “Governance, Leadership and Public Management” workshop, for the benefit of 60 leaders of communities and human settlements of Iquitos and Conchán, which sought to develop capacities and provide tools on governance, public management and transparent government.Likewise, the participants learned about the structure and operation of the State and the main criteria for the management of programs and projects in order to strengthen the knowledge of leaders to make better decisions.

PROVINCIAL AND DISTRICT GOVERNANCE

  • The Comprehensive Public Management Program provided support and technical assistance to strengthen the capacities of fifty-six civil servants and public servants from five municipalities in the area of influence of the North Peruvian Pipeline —Imaza, Manseriche, Urarinas, Condorcanqui and Datem del Marañón—. Likewise, seven instruction and advice modules developed for continuous improvement in public management were implemented.
  • The Program for Social Advocacy and Government Articulation in the areas of influence of the North Peruvian Pipeline began in January 2021. It is currently in execution and presents, as of September 2021, the following results: sixty bilateral meetings, three training workshops on administrative management issues, three seminars on the reality of the populations and localities of the Amazon, and thirty-nine agreements carried out between municipalities and national governments.
