Community

Vivo Energy Cape Verde wants to make a real and lasting difference to the communities in which we operate. Our community investment programmes matter to us because we employ local people and serve local businesses and individuals. We want to create lasting social and economic benefits for these communities and engage with them to earn their respect and trust.

We have chosen to focus on three key areas of community investment. These are road safety, education and the environment.

Road safety

Road safety is especially important for Vivo Energy Cape Verde, and is the main focus of our community investment efforts. We continue to be at the forefront of various road safety interventions across the country, and aim to contribute towards meeting the target set by the United Nations in terms of reducing the number of road accidents in Africa by 2020. 

To this end, Vivo Energy Cape Verde recently held an activity to raise awareness around road safety with the students of the School Valentina in St. Vicente Island. The School is located in an area with much traffic, which contributed to the occurrence of accidents involving the students.

Through this road safety initiative, Vivo Energy Cape Verde aims to improve the students’ road safety and raise awareness of road safety issues.
