2) PS2. Labour and working conditions
PROFONANPE has high standards when hiring staff and rigorously applies all of Peru’s legal guidelines,
in addition to standards set by international cooperation agencies. All staff recruitment takes place in a
competitive and transparent manner, without discrimination, and is particularly respectful of the local
sensitivities where it works.
The project does not involve the permanent recruitment of indigenous staff. It seeks to empower
communities to implement the actions identified as a result of the enactment of the land-use plan and
natural resources management plans. This does not exclude the fact that, among consultants and
technical staff, the project may give preference to those who are from the region and are of indigenous
origin.
The project will not promote or force child labour. (In indigenous communities, underage children are
traditionally involved in productive activities as apprentices and perform tasks suited to their abilities
under adult supervision.)
3) PS5. Land acquisition and involuntary resettlement
The project will not generate the displacement of indigenous communities. Instead, it will strengthen legal
security by promoting land titling and land-use planning.
The project seeks the sustainable use of, and unrestricted access to, natural resources in the province,
without discriminating between indigenous and non-indigenous peoples. There is a possibility that nonindigenous
peoples and persons from outside the territory may inhabit the same territory as project
beneficiaries. In such cases, the project will develop a policy of intercultural interaction as is currently
being implemented in the environmental conservation areas.
The project will promote alternative activities through the development of bio-businesses, such as the
commercialization of dried, salted and frozen fish, and aguaje harvesting (without cutting down palm trees)
and its transformation into pulp, flour and oils.
4) PS7. Indigenous peoples
The project’s design includes a process for the free and informed consent of indigenous peoples, as a
result of which the social licensing of the project was obtained. This process included an intercultural
approach and was gender sensitive.
The project will develop a process of information and permanent dialogue with indigenous peoples, so
that all decisions regarding the project will be made with consensus as the preferred method.
