Effective decisions depend on a deep understanding of context.

We provide conflict analysis, conflict sensitivity assessments, human rights risk assessments, stakeholder analysis, and Security and Human Rights reviews to help organisations understand the risks, opportunities and conflict dynamics that shape their operating environment.

Using a global network of specialists and the Conflict SMART™ methodology and platform, we translate complex context into practical insights that support investment decisions, project development, operational planning, risk management, and stakeholder engagement.

Expectations around responsible business conduct continue to evolve.

We help organisations design, strengthen and implement conflict-informed due diligence processes, including Heightened Human Rights Due Diligence (hHRDD) in line with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises, Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights, and emerging mandatory due diligence requirements.

Our focus is on practical implementation—ensuring due diligence informs decision-making, risk management and business performance rather than becoming a compliance exercise.

Building organisational capability is critical to managing risk in complex environments.

We deliver tailored training, coaching and advisory support that strengthens internal capacity in conflict analysis, conflict sensitivity, Security and Human Rights, hHRDD, stakeholder engagement, and responsible business conduct.

Our approach equips leaders and operational teams with the knowledge, tools and confidence to identify emerging risks, strengthen decision-making, and respond effectively to changing conditions.

The greatest risks often emerge during market entry, periods of instability, or operational closure. Deciding when and how to exit can be high stakes.

We support organisations to enter FCAS and CAHRAs responsibly, navigate conflict and crisis situations, and plan exits that minimise harm, protect stakeholder relationships, and uphold international standards.

By integrating conflict sensitivity, human rights considerations and context analysis into critical business decisions, we help organisations reduce risk and maximise positive outcomes for both business and communities.
