Description
Anti-corruption diligence has become integrated into legal and business operations. While many of its driving forces have pushed human rights diligence to the fore, the primary distinction has been the kind of broad legal mandate that exists in a number of domestic legislations and the related enforcement efforts. However, that is about to change, as mandatory due diligence laws are rapidly emerging, human rights is being integrated into other areas of international regulatory compliance, and human rights-related disputes continue to rise. The panel will focus on how the due diligence experience in anticorruption can be transposed to the human right agenda, as well as the limits of such synergies.
