FPIC
3. WHERE WE GAIN THESE TAKEAWAYS
•Perspectives from Oxfam in developing practical
approaches to FPIC in the Mekong countries

Agroforestry, which works directly with farmers to
establish its plantations and has its own FPIC
approach for community engagement

4. ▪
➢FPIC could easily be seen as a challenging process, costly,
and could be a bed of conflict and distrust; Lack of clarity in
laws and institutions to enforce FPIC may contribute to this.
➢As a process consultations must be in good faith and
genuine among government, private sector and
communities. Some examples are demonstrating this and we
can build from this.
➢Meaningful engagement in various forms such as structured
and multiple dialogues at different levels, accessible and
appropriate communication would constitute good practice
5. ➢ It is important to understand the enabling policy and business
environment to widen application and practice of FPIC – move beyond
concept but as a widely held and applied process from a rights based
perspective. Existing entry points nationally and in ASEAN are good
start including MRLG program.
➢ CSOs, indigenous peoples, ethnic and local communities still need to
increase their capacity and knowledge on FPIC to better and
strategically advocate and lobby for its full and effective
implementation. They need a platform and safe space to raise and
discuss experience and importance of FPIC, and connect with other key
stakeholders such as the government and private sector to
communicate the need for FPIC
