Across all our operations, Hunt is committed to positively impacting the communities in which we serve or conduct business
School children in Huancavelica, Peru
We treat all communities including residents, government entities, local businesses, and partners fairly and with respect. We create long-term economic and social value for residents in the areas where we conduct business. To accomplish this, we listen first to each stakeholder to better understand their needs and challenges, and then work collaboratively to develop a framework for mutual cooperation and success.
Building Relationships with Our Stakeholders
Stakeholders
To create meaningful and trusting relationships with our communities, we engage with stakeholders early in our relationship by promoting frequent and direct communication to share information regarding our activities, to receive feedback, and to understand stakeholder needs and concerns.
Landowners & neighbors
Partners, investors & lenders
Contractors & suppliers
Special interest groups
Local communities
Government authorities
Non-government organizations

In the course of our normal business activities, we have many different stakeholders, including our employees, partners, investors, lenders, contractors and suppliers, customers, and regulators. However, we also recognize there are many indirect stakeholders, such as local communities, landowners, and NGOs that may be affected or take interest in our activities.
Understanding each of these specific groups and their interests takes work – including comprehensive social impact assessments, surveys, town halls, and public notices.
To create meaningful and trusting relationships with our communities, we engage with stakeholders early on by promoting frequent and direct communication, sharing information related to our activities, and understanding their needs and concerns.
Only by listening and understanding the interests and concerns of our stakeholders as early as possible can we directly integrate real solutions into our business plans and meet their needs.
Designing and implementing effective social investment programs requires strong partnerships that draw upon the expertise and experience of community members, academia, non-government and community-based organizations, government agencies and other special interest groups.
Leveraging the core competencies of our strategic partners enables us to benefit from local expert knowledge, acquire new approaches to development, draw on additional and complementary skills, make our community development efforts more sustainable, and coordinate different efforts to maximize our use of resources and community development impact.
