Business and Human Rights
Corporations have significant power and influence over our living environment. They can both contribute to and prevent the realisation of human rights, the Sustainable Development Goals, and a circular and climate-neutral economy. National, EU and international legal frameworks seek to maintain economic growth while regulating corporate activities in the face of global political contestation and technological innovations.
