Advancing Human Rights in Nigerian Extraction through the Voluntary Principles

By working closely with stakeholders, we champion the adoption of the Voluntary Principles and the importance of thorough Human Rights Due Diligence. We believe in empowering communities with the understanding and tools they need. Together, we strive for an extractive industry built on accountability and respect for human rights.

We advance human rights through the Voluntary Principles in the extractive sector.

We believe in connecting with everyone involved – from companies to communities – to share why the Voluntary Principles and Human Rights Due Diligence matter. By helping communities understand their rights, we can collectively push for greater accountability and a truly responsible extractive sector.

On 26th July, 2023, FOCONE participated in the validation of Human Rights Due Diligence (HRDD) Tool for Nigeria.

Driven by the need for responsible practices, FOCONE began its work in 2022.

From our initial engagements, we focused on promoting the Voluntary Principles and the importance of respecting human rights within Nigeria's extractive industries. Even in those early stages, our commitment was clear: to foster accountability and empower communities affected by extractive operations.
