Workshop 05 business and human rights

Why is the protection of human rights relevant to business and not simply the responsibility of governments alone?

This interactive workshop will provide a basic introduction into human rights, international law, the United Nations system, relevant codes and examples of industry specific initiatives relating to human rights. Further, the workshop will provide relevant examples of business initiatives promoting human rights and discuss the challenges, lessons learned and some of the results achieved.

One of the foremost authorities on human rights, Prof. Brian Burdekin AO, will be one of the main speakers. He will be joined by panelists from leading corporations, government and civil society.

Numbers will be strictly limited to a maximum of 30 participants to ensure each participant has adequate time to interact with speakers and other participants. In addition, participants receive a workbook and compilation of relevant materials on a CD Rom for future reference.

Date and venue to be advised.
