FPIC International was designed specifically to avoid the common causes of FPIC failure and to produce results that are valid, durable and beneficial for all parties over time.
THE ROSTER
We maintain a global network of world-class experts across disciplines and geographies. That’s The Roster.
The Roster allows us to build a bespoke team for each project — selecting the expertise the project needs, rather than assigning the in-house staff we happen to have.
EXPERTISE
FPIC Process Design | Community Facilitation & Engagement | Capacity Building
Mediation, Dispute & Conflict Resolution
Independent Technical Expertise
Government Relations Management
Indigenous Rights Law
LOCAL KNOWLEDGE KEEPERS
We add to The Roster local knowledge keepers and cultural anthropologists from the specific Indigenous communities involved in each FPIC process.
Many FPIC processes stall or fail because Indigenous community structures, representatives and dynamics are misunderstood.
Including team members with deep community and cultural understanding helps us navigate these complexities sensitively and respectfully — and avoid mistakes that can undermine trust and derail the process.
SPECIALIZED EXPERTISE
We bring in specialized experts beyond The Roster to fill specific technical or sector gaps, as needed.
Need a hydrogeologist to assess potential impacts on a community’s groundwater? We’ll find the right one. Need an expert in tailings management, caribou migration or marine ecosystems? We’ll bring them in.
