New Guidance for Local Working Groups on Business, Security and Human Rights

The Geneva Centre for Security Sector Governance (DCAF) in collaboration with the Fund for Peace (FFP) launched “From Commitment to Impact: A Guide for Local Working Groups on Business, Security and Human Rights.” The guide aims to encourage and support the development of effective In-Country Working Groups (ICWGs) that foster responsible business conduct.

Building on lessons learned and experiences of stakeholders in the field, the guide draws on the full companion research study “From Commitment to Impact: Experiences of Local Working Groups on Business, Security and Human Rights.” These two products were developed to provide guidance to existing groups, to encourage effective implementation of new In-Country processes, and more broadly to establish a rubric for how security and human rights multi-stakeholder processes can be implemented at the national and sub-national level worldwide.
