New Briefing Paper: Security and Human Rights in Kenya’s Extractives Sector (Nairobi Process)
This briefing paper, published by the Institute for Human Rights and Business, introduces the recent work of the multi-stakeholder Nairobi Process initiative in the emerging oil and gas sector in Kenya and situates it within the relevant international human rights standards and alongside other examples from Africa and Latin America on promoting and adopting the VPs. The paper offers a brief overview of the main security and human rights challenges to extractive industries in the East Africa region and draws key lessons and recommendations for companies, government and civil society on the management of security and the mitigation of risk of human rights abuses.
