Community benefits agreements (CBAs) have risen in popularity and usage in the twenty-first century. Despite their intuitive appeal, usage has remained relatively infrequent due to legal and practical difficulties. Globally, various policies share key goals and characteristics with CBAs, including place-based development, community engagement, and applicability to large projects.

This paper advances rights-based strategies, tools, and frameworks for consideration, while discussing the potential and challenges of each.
