Social Management Report ACP 2019 – 2022

The Colombian Association of Oil and Gas (ACP) presents its ninth Social Management Report, highlighting the commitment of the hydrocarbons sector to the sustainable development of the country between 2019 and 2022. This period, marked by the effects of the pandemic, emphasizes the fundamental role of companies in the sector as key players in economic reactivation, generating more than 95 thousand jobs —with an 80% of local hiring— and stimulating regional economies through purchases of more than $33 billion pesos. The report adopts for the first time an approach aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), integrating indicators that demonstrate the impact on poverty reduction, decent employment, gender equity, and economic growth.

In addition to making social management visible, the report details investments in high-impact territorial projects, especially in rural areas and PDET and ZOMAC municipalities, where local capacities were strengthened and economic inclusion was promoted. The ACP highlights how the industry has evolved towards responsible corporate citizenship, integrating strategies of diversity, training, and sustainability that contribute to peace and the transformation of regions. This publication consolidates itself as a consultation tool for the public sector, academia, and civil society, reaffirming the role of oil and gas as allies in Colombia's development.
