The FPIC-360° Tool is based on the premise that without a responsible process for achieving Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC), the credibility of the outcome of that process is compromised. Its framework is unique in that it considers not only the outcome of the process but also the process used to obtain FPIC, the conditions under which this process is conducted (or the enabling conditions), and whether the process used adheres to the key principles of FPIC. That is, FPIC can only be verified when all three of these elements coincide.
