RESPONSIBLE SUPPLY CHAIN & HUMAN RIGHTS
We consider our supply chain partners as essential business partners in achieving our climate change goals for a just, inclusive and sustainable energy transition.
We apply environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria in the selection and hiring decisions, and we demand compliance with our Supplier Code of Ethics at Amara NZero Group.
In addition, we actively integrate risk management throughout our supply chain, implementing due diligence actions to ensure compliance with human rights.
This practice reflects our commitment to sustainability and corporate responsibility, ensuring that all parties involved in our supply chain operate according to the highest ethical and legal standards.

In our business relationships we apply the principles stated in our Respect for Human Rights Policy [pdf] and ensure respect for related key international standards and practices:
- UN Global Compact Principles.
- UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights.
- OECD Guidelines.
- ILO Principles.
- The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
SOCIAL ACTION FOR NEXT GENERATIONS: AMARA NEXTGEN FOUNDATION
We believe in a just energy transition that protects the legacy for future generations.
To achieve this goal, we carry out intense social work through numerous initiatives related to child protection, energy access for vulnerable groups and the promotion of training as a means of social inclusion.
The evolution of Amara NZero's strong sense of social responsibility led us in 2022 to establish Amara NextGen Foundation, an entity that has become the best example of how we take action to contribute to achieving a fairer and more equitable society.
