À propos de l'événement

As corrupt practices and human rights violations often root from the same causes, the anti-corruption and human rights agendas share many commonalities and are interlinked. Besides these similarities, there are also relevant differences, such as the stakeholders, regulations, and business practices. This webinar provides an overview of anti-corruption and human rights challenges, addresses their synergies and explores opportunities for complementary approaches. After a contribution by the Basel Institute on Governance and ECOFACT, ABB and Interholco will share their practical experiences leading into a peer-exchange.
