If an investment project is carried out in a respectful and inclusive way, it may help communities to advance their development goals by creating jobs, building clinics, or constructing roads and wells. \u201cBut investment projects also come with great risks,\u201d said Sam Szoke-Burke, a legal researcher at CCSI and one of the guides\u2019 authors. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIf the project is not governed by a fair, detailed and enforceable contract, the community will have fewer legal protections and there will be less pressure on the company to avoid polluting local rivers, air, and soils, blocking community access to sacred areas or water sources, or otherwise violating community members\u2019 human rights.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rachael Knight, Namati\u2019s senior advisor for land and another of the guides\u2019 authors, said that at the heart of the problem is the fact that consultations between communities and investors are often characterized by significant information and power imbalances. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cInternational investors commonly approach communities accompanied by powerful government officials, while national investors are often members of the police force, military or government\u2014or elites with ties to these groups,\u201d said Knight. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cCommunity members often agree to investment projects not because it is in their best interest, but because they are intimidated or coerced into doing so. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIn instances where negotiations do take place, investors often promise impressive benefits but the communities lack the legal literacy to negotiate enforceable contracts that hold the investors accountable to these commitments.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The two guides draw from dozens of investor-community contracts and community experiences from around the world.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b><i><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-94613\" src=\"https:\/\/namati.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Screenshot-2018-09-04-17.00.53-213x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"159\" height=\"224\" \/><a href=\"\/?p=94592\">Guide 1: Preparing in Advance for Potential Investors<\/a>\u00a0<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">supports communities to understand their legal rights and prepare themselves before investors arrive.
