They, along with Amazon Watch, facilitate participation by Indigenous representatives for the 2006, 2007 and 2008 ConocoPhillips annual meetings. The Resolved clause for the 2007 Proxy states: Shareholders request that the Board prepare a report at reasonable cost and omitting proprietary information, on ConocoPhillips\u2019 policies and procedures regarding: 1. Host country laws and regulations with respect to their adequacy to protect indigenous rights. 2. Process and practice for obtaining consent of Indigenous Peoples affected by our operations, through their recognized and official governance structures.

In 2009, shareholders withdrew the proposal after the company committed to expand its reporting per the proposal and meet in New York, which leads to twice yearly dialogue meetings from 2010 to 2014 with ICCR members and other investors.<\/p>\n

2006 <\/strong>–\u00a0 Representatives from the Western Shoshone in Nevada and the Colville Tribe attend the AGM of Newmont Mining, along with Indigenous representatives from Australia, Ghana, and Peru.

Intermon Oxfam (Oxfam of Spain) represents Boston Common at Repsol’s 2008 AGM in Madrid. Their intervention leads to front page press coverage in Spain. Intermon Oxfam prepared a critical report the previous year and submitted a petition with 10,000 signatures to Repsol.
