Responsibility of Transnational Corporations under the Draft International Treaty on Business and Human Rights in General and in the Face of Climate Change

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

In recent years there has been an intensive debate about business involment in human rights abuses and transnational corporations that have been named as being largely responsible for causing world´s emissions and environmental degradation. With this backdrop, several countries, with the Ecuador and South Africa at the forefront, requested the United Nations Human Rights Council to establish an intergovernmental working group with a mandate to prepare a draft legally binfing instrument on business and human rights. Such treaty is expected to bring enhanced protection of human rights in the context of business activities, and, prospectively, to articulate obligations for business with a transnational character. This article explores the main principles of the proposed draft treaty and draft´s reflection on climate protection.
