TNI will work with affected communities and strategic partners in Africa, Asia and Latin America and strategic solidarity partners in Europe and US towards policy changes that lay the ground for binding legislation and UN Treaty on TNCs and other business enterprises. TNI will work on capacity building of affected communities impacted by corporate violations of human rights and environmental standards, dispossession and loss of livelihoods, and forced internal and outmigration. Activities include popular effective documentation systems, case building, networking towards solidarity and alliances with media, academe and other opinion makers. TNI will develop joint strategies with affected communities towards the development and implementation of advocacy with governments, giving visibility and voice to self-representation of communities at country level, in their relevant regional bodies and at the UN in Geneva on the need for a Binding UN Treaty on TNCs and other business enterprises. TNI will also reach out to Parliamentarians in reclaiming parliamentary accountability towards citizens in terms of raising the issues and addressing the erosion of human rights protection legislation impacting affected communities and advocating in the Parliamentary arenas for the UN Binding Treaty on TNCs and other business enterprises. TNI will facilitate public awareness raising with Popular Tribunals, Public Forums, Community Assemblies, Fact Finding Missions debating the issues and engaging governments and experts, and effective use of social media and community radio, projecting both the impacts of corporate violations and the proposals and practices towards alternatives in the juridical/legal, economic and political fields. Last, TNI will work on generating new knowledge through targeted publications and videos and mobilisations that converge various sectors (indigenous peoples, farmers, workers including migrant workers, women, experts in human rights and international and corporate law and multi-disciplinary practioners/ skill sharing) and demonstrate the protagonism of affected communities and social movements and cross-fertilises experiences and practices of alternatives (e.g food sovereignty, citizen-led natural resource basic services; citizen strategies reclaiming participatory democracy).
