Corporate Human Rights & Conflict Sensitivity Advisory

Turning volatile environments into sustainable operating frameworks.

Organizations operating in fragile or high-volatility environments — from international NGOs to corporate foundations and multilateral partners — face increasing pressure to deliver impact responsibly and safely.
At José Parejo & Associates, we integrate strategic foresight, human-rights governance, and field-validated implementation to strengthen resilience and accountability where it matters most.

" We bridge the strategic rigor of institutional advisory with the real-world precision of field implementation — a combination rarely found in the same firm. "

Governance & Accountability Frameworks

Helping NGOs, corporate responsibility teams, and institutional partners align their governance systems with UN Guiding Principles (UNGPs), IFC Performance Standards, and Humanitarian Principles.
Our frameworks connect field realities with donor, investor, and board-level expectations, ensuring transparency, compliance, and measurable accountability.

Deliverables:

  • Accountability & Human Rights Policies.

  • Safeguarding and incident-management SOPs.

  • ESG / CSR compliance reporting for fragile contexts.

  • Monitoring & Evaluation dashboards.
