[…] 2: SCOTLAND’S SECOND NATIONAL HUMAN RIGHTS ACTION PLAN (2023-2030) 58 Learning from SNAP 1 (2013 to 2017) SNAP 1 Reports and Case Studies Scotland’s first SNAP (SNAP 1) ran from 2013 to 2017. It was developed and implemented as a collaborative partnership, bringing together the Scottish Government, public bodies, civil society organisations, the National Human Rights Institutions, and rights holders across Scotland. In total, over 40 organisations and people took part in delivering, governing and monitoring SNAP. From 2013 to 2017, SNAP 1 involved over 50 different actions. The SNAP 1 Annual Progress Reports and Case Studies provided important learning for the development of SNAP 2. SNAP 1 Independent Evaluation An independent evaluation of SNAP 1 was commissioned in March 2017, building on qualitative interviews evaluating SNAP that took place from 2014 onwards, as well as documentary analysis. The independent evaluation was carried out by Dr Jo Ferrie of the University of Glasgow, and the final report was published in 2019. Its recommendations included the following: 1. Build on the existing SNAP evidence base. Several SNAP 2 actions call for lived experience engagement, a human rights review or a mapping exercise. 2. Improve and provide resources to support the participation of rights holders and civil society organisations. Rights holders and civil society organisations are key members […] Continue Reading SNAP-2-March-2023-FINAL-PDF

[…] safely, and in the knowledge that their concerns are dealt with in a timely manner. DEALING WITH COMMUNITY GRIEVANCES Issue – Conflicts between local communities and an oil company in Asia over the impacts of the oil opera- tions threatened to cause delays and financial losses for the company. Approach – The company employed four main strategies to engage more effectively with communities: 1. Community outreach and interviews with key opinion leaders and decision makers. 2. Information dissemination, education, and communication activities for the wider community. 3. Perception surveys and participatory workshops t o introduce the project and validate initial survey results. 4. Participatory involvement in the formulation of environmental management plans. The cost of this engagement was estimated at approximately US$6 million on a total project cost of US$ 4.5 billion (0.13% of total costs). Result – The company calculated that by changing its engagement with local communities, it managed to avoid project delays of approximately 10-15 days, equivalent to an estimated saving of US $50-72 million through timely completion of construction and avoiding contractual penalties. 13 CHALLENGE Companies may become implicated in abuses and allegations of complicit y in human rights abuses.
