A variety of experts will offer diverse perspectives on a number of cutting-edge issues in this important field, including new developments on the state duty to protect (Pillar 1), evolving corporate reporting frameworks related to adverse human rights impacts (Pillar 2) and emerging practice in providing access to effective remedy (Pillar 3). Participants will come away with an appreciation for the progress made aligned with the Protect, Respect and Remedy Framework and how different companies are integrating respect for human rights, based on guidance provided in the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. A variety of cutting-edge issues in this important field will be covered from different viewpoints as outlined in the agenda below. Please note that this year’s Forum will be a day and a half event.
