About the Project:
The project aims to accelerate cooperation for the sustainable recovery of the Eastern Partnership region by addressing business-related human rights and environmental challenges.
Companies supply goods and services, create jobs, and can contribute to poverty alleviation. However, the risk of negative business impact on people and the environment is also significant and is even higher in crises, armed conflicts, or areas where the lack of the rule of law is evident.
The project combines raising awareness of human rights and environmental due diligence among business actors, trade unions, and civil society organisations; adapting and updating recommendations for different stakeholders in the region to promote corporate sustainability; and creating a Sustainable Biz Hub for communication and dialogue between stakeholders.
