Priority initiatives associated with the private social investment strategy
| Projects/Program | Description | Social benefit generated | KPI 2023 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Public Management Support Program (Plurianual Plans-PPAs) | The Public Management Support Program stimulates regional socioeconomic development and supports the modernization and qualification of municipal public administrations through the use of planning as a management tool. As a result, municipalities with Klabin operations, whether forestry or manufacturing, can use public resources more efficiently. On the other hand, the Company has seen a decrease in demands for assistance and non-structural measures. | The Public Management Support Program in 14 priority municipalities, providing training and consulting to enhance their planning and allocation of public resources, including those derived from taxes paid by the Company, for example. In 2023, these municipalities had their Multi-Year Plans monitored by public management with the support of specialized consulting services offered by Klabin, in addition to evaluating the effectiveness of action implementation. |
Decrease in welfare and non-structuring demands. |
Social progress indices - IPS |
The indicators generated by the IPS serve to evaluate the social programs developed by Klabin in Paraná. The company has social programs in the areas of planning, education, family farming and solid waste, and the IPS helps to measure the value that each of these initiatives delivers to the communities. | Based on the IPS, a better territorial organization can be set up and public authorities can be provided with the programmed application of resources in the short, medium, and long term, always in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The Território 2030 website, which provides indicators comprising the Índice de Progresso Social (IPS) for the Campos Gerais territories in Paraná and those of Planalto Serrano in Santa Catarina, regions where Klabin operates, has been updated with data up to 2022. There are 56 indicators across three dimensions: Basic Human Needs, Foundations of Wellbeing, and Opportunities, for 12 municipalities in Paraná and 15 in Santa Catarina. In 2024, there will be a new update with information from 2023, and the IPS of Goiana (PE) will be included. |
Possibility of measuring the results of Klabin's Social Projects in the territories where it operates and observing the positive impact of the projects on the evolution of the IPS indicators. It also provides guidelines for better directing the Company's social and environmental investments, as well as projecting Klabin's image to the community and investors. |
| Matas sociais program | Matas Sociais is the fulfillment of Klabin's Sustainability Policy: to support the development of the communities where the Company has operations. | Implemented in 11 municipalities in Paraná and five in Santa Catarina, Matas Sociais assists small and medium-sized rural producers in various stages of production, from compliance with environmental legislation to support for food marketing, including training activities, property diversification, and encouragement of association and cooperation. Matas Sociais – Planejando Propriedades Sustentáveis conducted an evaluation survey with rural producers benefiting from the family farming initiative developed by Klabin in 2015, in partnership with the Association for the Preservation of Environment and Life (Apremavi) and Sebrae. |
Since the program began eight years ago, 850 rural properties have been served until 2023 and more than 377,000 native seedlings have been donated.
|
| Solid waste programs | The Solid Waste Program, developed with the Intermunicipal Consortium Caminhos do Tibagi in 2012, has promoted several actions to support selective waste collection in seven municipalities in the Campos Gerais region, in Paraná. | The Solid Waste Program focuses on selective waste collection with the social inclusion of recycling cooperatives and community engagement to encourage proper disposal and environmentally sound waste management. It is conducted in partnership with the Intermunicipal Consortium Caminhos do Tibagi in seven municipalities of Paraná (Imbaú, Ortigueira, Reserva, Rio Branco do Ivaí, Telêmaco Borba, Tibagi, and Sapopema), with the support of Ambipar Environment, which provides specialized consultancy in structuring cooperatives and in fostering partnerships among these groups, the government, and society. Since its implementation in 2021, the program has already contributed to an increase of approximately 84% in the income of recycling agents. In 2023, the cooperatives in Telêmaco Borba started processing glass, a material that was not previously commercialized in the region. The RECICLATB cooperative has been transformed into a Social Franchise. |
Over 3,180 tons of waste were recovered in recycling institutions in 2023. The number is 13% higher compared to that recorded in 2022. |
The commitment to local development is part of Klabin's essence and is outlined in its Sustainability Policy. In practice, the work with communities is conducted based on engagement with them through an economic, environmental, and social agenda built with the participation of a wide variety of stakeholders.
Social responsibility and community relations initiatives include education and training projects for the job market, family farming, and regional solid waste management, as well as a program to support public management planning. All operational impacts of industries and forestry operations are identified, mitigated, or reduced, fostering operation under the highest standards of sustainability. The negative impacts are also mapped and can be consulted in Engagement Initiatives.
