OUR STAKEHOLDERS:

To deliver on our promise of Creating Value and Giving Back, we have identified and prioritized stakeholders with whom we maintain permanent contact, for whom we can generate impacts and whose presence influences our management. We periodically update the prioritization of our stakeholders following the guidelines of the AA 1000 standard.

Our last update took place in 2023 and established the following priority groups:

Our main relationship objective is to generate trust and exchange information that generates shared value. Prioritizing stakeholders does not mean that we only engage with these stakeholders, or that we are not constantly monitoring the context and its actors. Prioritization is an exercise in improving engagement mechanisms and processes, as well as their governance, without neglecting other variables or other actors present in the local area and at the international level.

We firmly believe that relationships based on trust are built through transparent, timely and clear communication. This is why we prioritize the establishment of effective communication channels adapted to the needs of our stakeholders.

 

In 2023 we carried out the first DM analysis in GeoPark, in phases:

  1. Document review
  2. Identification of positive and negative impacts
  3. Stakeholder consultation
  4. Approval by the Board of Directors
  5. Socialization of results with stakeholders
