Community-led advocacy protects land, lives, and livelihoods around the world.
We support communities to raise their voices about the decisions that impact them and access justice and remedy.
Our support ranges from intensive and comprehensive assistance through every step of a community’s campaign for justice, to tailored research and advice for people and advocates evaluating strategies, to bespoke training sessions for civil society partners seeking to learn how to use accountability channels to demand justice.
