How do you help build healthy and economically self-sufficient communities?

At Chevron, we are convinced that partnerships based on mutual benefit are the best way to build strong, self-sufficient communities and a stable business environment. Wherever we operate, we invest in and collaborate with governments, local communities, nongovernmental organizations and academic institutions to help contribute to economic and social progress. One recent project is in Bangladesh, where we have established a number of clinics to provide health care to villagers living near the world-class Bibiyana natural gas field, which began production in 2007.
