Resumen
Descripción
This note provides guidance on the
overall approach to consulting, engaging, and partnering
with local communities, to bridge gaps in information and
expectation between communities and investors and create the
social license to operate. Engaging with local communities
and other stakeholders is both socially responsible and a
business imperative; investors that are well integrated with
the local community are more likely to be financially
successful. Effective engagement is necessary across all
phases of the investment project, from the initial mapping,
consultations withcommunities, and contract negotiations to
the establishment of a grievance mechanism, ongoing
community dialogue, and monitoring of both environmental and
social impacts. Aligning the expectations and understanding
of investors and communities creates the necessary
environment for mutual benefit.
