I am wondering if anyone has studied the relationship between human rights impact assessments and/or free, prior and informed consent processes and company-community conflict. In other words, has anyone studied whether there are significantly less conflicts in jurisdictions with stronger impact assessment and engagement (e.g FPIC)? Thank you.
Yes, there is correlation between impact assessment and company- community conflict. It is within the law that IA must be carried out. Either human right assessment or environmental, both refers to impacts on man considering the negativity of what is going to be the activities in term of production of the company. It is better to carried out the impact before the company is established to avoid the future misunderstanding between the company and the community. Also, it will afford the community to present their demands on whatever basis to the company as well as government representatives in the discuss. In deed, Impact Assessment Discussion facilitate healthy environment for both the company and the host community which resulted in mutual understanding, growth and development.
