Therefore, we invest in actions that produce a positive legacy and enhance opportunities in the places where we operate. We believe that building a relationship of quality and trust with communities is done through partnership and dialogue, and therefore, we carry out actions and projects that contribute to the sociocultural appreciation and economic development of the territories.

Human Rights

For all its extension and complexity, Vale's operations demand numerous challenges in the area of Human Rights.

Acting in the most remote areas of the country, presents a reality of social public policies not always fully present. Strong action and an intersectoral approach are needed to enable complex and systemic problems to be tackled. That's why the company is committed to the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights and to alignment with international principles and standards.
