Community-Company Engagement: Good Practice in Extractive Industries

This research paper by Marie Wilke, Laura Letourneau-Tremblay, and Stephanie Booker examines community-company engagement in the extractive industries, specifically focusing on communities that struggle to engage with companies and seek to use formal agreements to secure commitments and manage conflicts.

• Community-company engagements encompass a variety of interactions across a project's life cycle, including dialogue, specific negotiations, agreements, and support structures like development funds and grievance mechanisms.
• Certain communities that face difficulties engaging with companies use formal agreements to establish their role in the process, secure specific commitments regarding the scope of impact assessments, create conflict resolution mechanisms, and prepare for future socio-economic participation negotiations.
