Stakeholder Engagement AbitibiBowater believes it is essential to have meaningful engagement with a wide range of stakeholders — customers, suppliers, employees, shareholders, communities, governments and non-governmental organizations. Although we cannot always meet every expectation, we strive to be a solid corporate citizen, a responsible employer and a good neighbor, contributing to the economic, social and environmental sustainability of the regions where we operate. AbitibiBowater maintains positive business relationships with numerous First Nations and Native American groups in the areas of cooperative management of sustainable forest licenses, engineering, production, forestation, road access, harvesting, silviculture and transportation. We are also committed to openly engaging with environmental non-governmental organizations (ENGOs) to find solutions that address our mutual interest in the sustainability of forests.
