With the aim of promoting healthy lifestyle routines through physical and cultural activity, at Austral Group we organize free useful vacation workshops with the “Muévete” program, aimed at children and adolescents in the Coishco district, Áncash.
Summer classes began on January 13, marking the start of an unforgettable experience for hundreds of children. This year, we have positively impacted the lives of more than 350 minors with the program, providing them with a space where they can explore their talents, acquire new knowledge and lead a healthy lifestyle. Each workshop has been designed to offer 6 hours of learning per week.
Students are also given the opportunity to share healthy habits and develop their sports and artistic skills through disciplines such as volleyball, soccer, carnival dances and modern dance. We firmly believe that promoting these spaces helps create a healthy lifestyle.
Promoting healthy fun
Since its creation in 2015, the program “(“Move”)” has transformed the lives of more than 3,300 children and young people. We are proud to know that these workshops have been a pillar in their comprehensive development, strengthening both their physical and emotional well-being and sowing values that will accompany them throughout their lives.
Adriana Guidice, our general manager highlighted “At Austral Group we reaffirm our commitment to the well-being of the fishing communities where we operate, encouraging a healthy lifestyle and developing sporting and cultural activities for the benefit of all.”
Let's continue to build together a future full of opportunities for our communities and, above all, for children and adolescents. We invite you to be part of this positive change. Share this initiative, join our activities and help us continue to create impact.
Giudice explained that the main material issues identified in the Austral Sustainability Committee's roadmap are: management of environmental practices and climate change; aspects that are measured under the guidelines of the ISO 14064-1: 2018 standard.
In this regard, the main action aimed at reducing GHG is the change of energy matrix to natural gas, which began in 2013 at the Pisco plant, and then continued in 2016 and 2018 at the Chancay and Coishco plants, respectively; with an investment of US$ 4.7 million.
The executive supported the project to change the energy matrix of its Coishco plant, which represents an estimated savings in emissions of 12,967 TCO2eq, accumulated between 2019 and 2023.
Finally, Giudice pointed out that “the distinction of the fourth star commits us to continue promoting actions in line with the fight against climate change and that ensure the sustainability and care of our sea.”
