This research aims to describe what happened in the area of influence of Las Bambas mining project -the most important investment project in Peru- and allow us to provide a rough analysis of the situation in order to understand the relevant factors regarding the social feasibility of Las Bambas mining project, given the effects and consequences of the resettlement process taking place in the peasant community of Fuerabamba and the evaluation of the implementation process of the Social Advancement Fund, known by the mining company as Restitution of Livelihoods Program, endorsed within a framework arrangement of Agreements and Commitments legally signed with the community of Fuerabamba in 2010 and 2014. The objective of this paper is to produce alternative proposals to make adjustments and improvements on the intervention carried out by the mining company, identifying problems in the scheduling, administration, distribution, control and implementation of the Fuerabamba community’s resettlement project. This research is important because it will allow, in an objective and methodical fashion, the analysis of those factors that constrain the social feasibility of Las Bambas mining project based on the scope of the resettlement project, the social advancement fund, and the perception of the community members regarding the resettlement of the community in Nuevo Fuerabamba and the Yavi Yavi country estate. The resettlement process in Las Bambas took place gradually and by stages. It began defining the scope and the methodology of the relocation. Afterwards, the resettlement plan and the commitments were designed followed by the facilitation of the complying of the agreements and the transfer process. Finally, a livelihood restoration program - a theoretical one- was put forward. Later, this has undergone a reality check in view of the social mobilizations and strikes organized by the Fuerabamba community itself, a social phenomenon that has escalated throughout the Cotabambas province, even involving the entire mining corridor. The only answer on the part of the central government has been the “declaration of the state of emergency” for over a year coupled with the criminalization of protest, violating in this way the peasant communities’ human rights This paper addresses a critical analysis of the actions developed by the three most relevant actors: the community of Fuerabamba; the State, represented by the current government; and Las Bambas mining company specifically identifying the constraining factors preventing the resettlement process that have led to this level of conflict jeopardizing the sustainability of the mining activity itself
