⚖️ Business and Human Rights

The responsibility of companies to respect human rights—both within their operations and across global value chains—is now internationally recognized.
We are committed to promoting the practical implementation of the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs), fostering a corporate culture grounded in respect for fundamental rights.

Our work includes:

• research and training on due diligence, global value chains, and gender-responsive due diligence;

• participation in international forums (e.g. the UN Forum on Business and Human Rights);

• publication of articles, reports, and position papers;

• event organization and training (including the Business and Human Rights Summer School, since 2018);

• dialogue with companies, institutions, and civil society organizations;

• European-level advocacy, as part of the Italian campaign Impresa 2030 and the European Coalition for Corporate Justice network.

⚖️ Human Rights Litigation

We provide legal support to victims of human rights violations, both nationally and internationally.

This includes:

• individual applications before the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR);
