What if development were designed and lived by the same people?
International Accountability Project (IAP) works for a world in which all people can shape the decisions that affect their homes, environment, and communities.
Development should be a process that enables all people to uphold and claim their human rights, live with dignity, and thrive on the land they love.
IAP, an international advocacy organization, wins policy change, boosts local advocacy efforts & supports local activists and communities to access & exchange information on development that affects them. By opening space at influential decision-making spaces, IAP seeks to advance development principles and projects that prioritize human and environmental rights. IAP is recognized for its nimble, thoughtful & inclusive work that fights for community-led expertise & experience to be the center of how development is designed, funded and implemented.
At our core, IAP leverages community-level expertise & experience to increase community-led participation & reinforce campaigns supporting community-led development.
* IAP reinforces how communities participate as central figures in the development process. IAP identifies the development financial institutions and standard-setting processes with the greatest impact on people’s ability to shape their own development and provide remedies when rights are violated.
* To influence the policy and practice of development and as a mobilization tool, IAP assists communities to gather their own community-led research on their development priorities, their experience in the development process and the potential impacts of development projects.
* When assisting specific campaigns, IAP supports the community-led priorities and recommendations directed toward the financial institutions, governments, and project proponents connected to the project. IAP reinforces community-led campaigns to change how development is designed, funded, and implemented.
