Abstract

Las actividades de responsabilidad social empresarial que ejecutan las empresas mineras peruanas han cobrado especial relevancia en los últimos años, especialmente las relacionadas con las comunidades donde operan. Algunas comunidades de las respectivas zonas de influencia de las compañías mineras han asumido un rol activo en las decisiones que comprometen su desarrollo, esta nueva forma de participación en las diferentes instancias de las juntas comunales es el resultado de la ejecución de un proyecto integral de empoderamiento a los pobladores en los cuales participaron las empresas, la sociedad civil, el gobierno local y la comunidad. En el presente trabajo se muestra el caso de la empresa Compañía Minera Poderosa S.A., que ha ejecutado un proyecto de Gobernabilidad en el distrito de Pataz, La Libertad - Perú, el cual ha permitido capacitar y empoderar a los pobladores para que sean ellos los que tomen las decisiones mas adecuadas para su distrito. Los resultados observados del proyecto indican que la apropiada participación colectiva en las decisiones promueve el desarrollo sostenible de la comunidad. Corporate social responsibility activities launched by Peruvian mining enterprises have had particular importance in recent years, especially those connected to the communities where these companies work. Communities have assumed an active role in decisions related with economic and social development. This behavior is the result of an integrated approach of citizen empowerment and capacity building for sustainable development; companies, civil society, local governments and the community work together looking for a same goal. This paper shows the project of Governability in the district of Pataz, La Libertad – Peru which was launched by “Compañía Minera Poderosa S.A.”. This program empowered the local population to make their own local decisions. The results of the program indicate that collective participation in decision-making promotes sustainable development of the community.
