Development projects—in mining, oil and gas, agriculture, or infrastructure—should create shared prosperity, not bypass the communities whose lands and livelihoods are most affected. Yamalé Alliance ensures that communities are partners in development, not casualties of it. We support governments in drafting legislation that makes community participation and benefit-sharing legal requirements, negotiate Community Development Agreements that secure tangible returns, and strengthen community capacity to enforce their rights when agreements are breached. From advising on National Action Plans on Business and Human Rights to designing Free, Prior and Informed Consent protocols, we ensure law becomes the tool through which communities assert their agency.
