Rights groups urge stronger UN business and human rights treaty
Original: Lawyers for Human Rights and partners publish recommendations to strengthen the UN legally binding treaty on business and human rights
Lawyers for Human Rights and partner organisations have published a set of recommendations aimed at strengthening the proposed United Nations legally binding treaty on business and human rights. The recommendations are intended to shape ongoing negotiations over the instrument, which would hold companies accountable for human rights abuses. Advocates hope the proposals will influence delegates in the next round of treaty discussions.
Why now: Ongoing UN negotiations over a binding business and human rights treaty make advocacy recommendations timely.
