Human Rights due diligence laws advancing colonisation? Slide by Prof Florian Wettstein #mHRDD #HRDD #bizhumanrights #bhr #bhre #colonialism

Check out out new #openaccess paper on "Business strategy as human rights risk: the case of private equity".

With the fab @DavidBirchall we argue that the PE model contains serious risks to rights of workers and others, and that the model should be addressed specifically in emerging mHRDD laws.

@grabosch A treaty is only as good as its text (which may sound tautological, but sometimes we get treaties that establish a principle but leave booby traps in the text). Finding common ground across countries is difficult, and we even see pressure to water down the EU #mHRDD draft directive. I would prefer to press for more national #mHRDD legislation and use the best practice as the basis for a treaty later on.

The ITUC conference in Melbourne today is arguing for a global treaty on mandatory due diligence. A big ask, and I wonder whether a treaty could do more than establish general principles, but it shows that the international trade union movement, which is often marginalised in #BizHumanRghts #BizHR discussions at the UN, supports moves towards #mHRDD .

Absolutely shameful behaviour from #Macron and his government. He was unsuccessful in killing the 🇫🇷 duty of vigilance law back in 2016 so now he's going for the sustainability due diligence directive #bizhumanrights #mHRDD

Expert study on "The business and human rights treaty and the EU proposal for a corporate sustainability due diligence directive: competencies, comparison and complementarity", authored by Markus Krajewski, Virginie Rouas, Kinda Mohamadieh and myself is out. #bizhumamrights #mHRDD

The report includes a super helpful outline of the competence division between the EU and the Member States and goes on to analyse and compare the content of the draft proposals.
