During July and August 2020, local communities from Espinar Province, in Cusco faced increased shortage of their living standards due to the COVID-19 pandemic. They mobilised asking Antapaccay, the Glencore project in the zone to provide them with a bonus to palliate the situation but they allege the company did not. The resulting protests were violently repressed. Business & Human Rights Resource Centre invited Glencore to respond. The response is available.
