Welcome to the Right Respect
Imagine businesses, governments, non-governmental agencies, academics and global citizens working together to address business issues affecting human rights. Imagine idea sharing and collaboration, guided toward proposing and considering alternatives and solutions to corporate activities impacting these rights. Imagine empowering this discussion through an easy, innovative online platform. What you have just imagined is the Right Respect.
The Right Respect is a collaborative project started by two lawyers with a shared passion for creating meaningful legal and policy dialogue between various stakeholders in the business and human rights debate. The site is directed towards crafting alternatives and cooperative solutions across industry sectors and geographical bounds through an exchange of information, ideas and perspectives.
So get involved! Register yourself and share your ideas and feedback in our Forum, our Policy Perspectives section or simply read about the Best Practices of some companies that are leading the way in pushing industry or government-led human rights standards.
