New Research Project: Measuring Business & Human Rights
‘Measuring Business & Human Rights’ is a research project which “aims to advance the capacity of all corporate stakeholders to measure the degree to which companies meet their responsibility to respect human rights.” The project continuously identifies, constructs and analyses measurement tools, which companies and other stakeholders can use to analyse the human rights performance of their operations. The project website, hosted by the Business & Human Rights Resource Centre, publishes the research outputs such as discussion papers and articles and provides a comprehensive database of initiatives and tools featuring business and human rights indicators. Lastly, the project also includes a blog, hosted by the London School of Economics and Political Science, which facilitates a public forum to discuss common challenges in measuring corporate respect for human rights.
