GRI 2-29 | Approach to stakeholder engagement Our stakeholders include shareholders, electricity sector agents, electricity sector associations, customers, employees, communities, suppliers, the press, regulatory agencies, civil society organizations, and public authorities. We frequently engage with our stakeholders through face-to-face and virtual meetings, relationship meetings, e-mails, and phone calls, and we dynamically identify the main interests and demands of each stakeholder group. These expectations are assessed by the responsible departments, which then designs engagement plans for each stakeholder group, in accordance with the Stakeholder Engagement Policy. Geared towards transparency in the relationships and to generate shared value, these strategies are followed up and executed by the teams in their daily routine. The purpose of stakeholder engagement is different for each group. This engagement is continuous during the relationship period, through weekly, monthly, quarterly or even yearly contacts, and happens directly with the stakeholders or through representatives. The company makes human and financial resources available for this process, for hiring specialized consulting firms and tools that make communication easier. 2022 Integrated Sustainability Report > Attachments aes Brasil
