Document Business-Related Human Rights Abuses

We rely on the efforts of many organizations and individuals worldwide working to shed light on the relationship between business activities and human rights. We encourage you and your organization to use a human rights methodology to investigate and report on business and human rights issues and welcome your published reports.

Place Your Advocacy In Focus

If you have worked to expose human rights abuses by businesses and sought to ensure accountability, and would like to be highlighted in our In-Focus section, please send us a brief description of your work, the industry involved and rights affected at info@b-hrd.org. We are particularly interested in advocacy efforts in which:

• The human rights abuse(s) relate directly to business activity.
• Your strategies to promote accountability and combat impunity utilize human rights law or mechanisms.
• Credible, first-hand reports of the abuse(s) are available.
• The actors involved in fighting impunity are interested in collaboration and available to give periodic updates.
