Human Rights Consulting

Human Rights & Business

Companies play an important role in the promotion and realisation of human rights.

 

Respect for human rights and economic success are not mutually exclusive - businesses play an important role in the promotion and realisation of human rights. Additionally, respect for human rights is essential for a company's sustainable economic success, reputation and competitiveness.

As an independent consultant, I support companies and organisations in implementing human rights requirements. With my expertise and holistic approach, I can help you identify the potential impact of your business activities on global human rights standards, develop human rights policies and implement them in a sustainable way in your organisation.
