An International Perspective on Business and Human Rights
April 5, 2025
The event will feature three dynamic panels, each exploring a critical aspect of the intersection between business and human rights. With a forward-looking perspective, these discussions will examine how this nexus shapes policy, legal developments, and industry practices.
Our distinguished panelists will engage in thought-provoking discussions on: (1) International Trade & Tariffs: Navigating the evolving global trade landscape; (2) Energy Transition in Conversation with the Climate Crisis: Addressing the legal and policy challenges of a sustainable future; and (3) Worker’s Rights: Due Diligence, Compliance, and Supply Chain Concerns.
(Remote attendance is available.)
