Due diligence is credible when rightsholders can influence the decisions that affect them. This session looks at what that takes: the conditions needed for dialogue to be meaningful, inclusive and durable, and what it delivers when rightsholders have genuine influence.
Join the Fair Labor Association, CNV Internationaal, the Ethical Trading Initiative, Fairtrade International, Meaningful Stakeholder Engagement Alliance (AIM-Progress, amfori, Ethical Trade Sweden, Ethical Trading Initiative, Food Network for Ethical Trade), Oxfam, Proforest, and the Social and Economic Council of the Netherlands to examine how stakeholder engagement supports, and never substitutes for, freedom of association and collective bargaining for workers; how free, prior, and informed consent applies for indigenous peoples; and what both mean in practice for effective HREDD.
