Build and Boost

We support companies and organizations build trust as the foundation for meaningful relationships, strengthen stakeholder connections, and expand their understanding of human rights. Our approach emphasizes developing a comprehensive and nuanced understanding of local contexts to ensure actions are culturally sensitive, effective, and aligned with the needs of affected stakeholders.

Boosting internal knowledge and understanding of business and human rights and specific human rights issues

We don’t believe in a top-down approach to training. We provide tailor-made human rights training and coaching to build organisational capacity, using interactive methods such as role-playing, case studies and interactive learning.

We also provide one-on-one coaching on community engagement and dialogue methodologies based on practical, on-the-ground insights.

 

Building Trust as the Foundation of Stakeholder Engagement

Stakeholder Mapping

We guide organizations in identifying and understanding all relevant stakeholders—both those impacted by and those influencing their operations—by evaluating their roles, interests, influence, and vulnerabilities. Equipped with a comprehensive stakeholder map, we help design tailored engagement strategies that build trust, foster collaboration, and address the unique needs of each group.

Meaningful Engagement with Affected Stakeholders and other Relevant Stakeholders

We support our clients enggaing meaningfully with diverse rightsholders and other relevant stakeholders acting as facilitators, in line with guidance from international standards, to inform decision-making, strengthen corporate due diligence, and build trust. This engagement foster respectful, transparent, and two-way communication, promote mutual understanding, and enable collaborative problem-solving, ensuring that stakeholder voices remain at the heart of shaping and driving effective actions.

Community Engagement and Trust-Building

We build and enhance community engagement practices by guiding companies to foster transparency and respect, ensuring that both Indigenous Peoples and non-Indigenous affected communities feel heard, valued, and empowered. Our approach incorporates an understanding of community power dynamics, supported by insights from local experts, to navigate complex relationships and ensure fair and meaningful long-term engagement. Emphasizing cultural sensitivity, we consider local traditions, norms, and socio-political contexts to tailor community engagement practices.
