Can I Join CCCS?

Affiliation with CCCS is available either for firms as a CCCS Consulting Partner or for individuals as a CCCS Associate.

CCCS CONSULTING PARTNERSHIPS:

Partnership with CCCS is open to any firm that provides, as a significant part of its activity, professional consulting services employing social impact assessments on behalf of Indigenous Peoples and/or other minority communities to international financial institutions, governments, civil society, or private sector industries. As CCCS is a firm specializing in helping clients work on projects and policies regarding Indigenous Peoples and other marginalized groups, we are interested only in those firms with significant expertise in Indigenous Peoples development. We also encourage applications from firms with strong in-country expertise, especially those with operations based in Asian countries.

CCCS ASSOCIATES:

Professional free-lance consultants and those already affiliated with consulting firms but not limited by contractual exclusivity may apply to become CCCS Associates. Associates could also be prospective social development practitioners with previous professional training, such as current Ph.D. candidates or recent graduates. We particularly encourage applications from practicing, independent consultants in the field of international development specializing in Indigenous Peoples’ issues to join as associates and benefit from the business and networking opportunities CCCS provides. Once an associate establishes a consulting practice, that firm is also eligible for partnership status.
