The International Corporate Accountability Roundtable (ICAR) and the Danish Institute for Human Rights (DIHR) are undertaking consultations with local experts and key stakeholders in various regions around the world to gain valuable inputs into the National Action Plans (NAPs) Project. The NAPs Project is developing a comprehensive toolkit to support national development and evaluation of State-level measures to implement the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs).
On October 11, 2013, the European Coalition for Corporate Justice (ECCJ) hosted the Project’s European Civil Society Dialogue in Brussels, Belgium. We extend our thanks to ECCJ for their excellent leadership and collaboration in this endeavor.
