Corporate Human Rights Abuse & Supply Chain Accountability Team

Holding corporations accountable for human rights abuses in their operations and global supply chains.

Mission Statement

The Corporate Human Rights Abuse & Supply Chain Accountability Team investigates and documents human rights abuses in corporate operations and global supply chains — from forced labor and child labor to environmental destruction and security force abuses. The unit builds accountability cases against corporations and their executives, advocates for mandatory human rights due diligence legislation, and supports affected communities in seeking remedy for corporate-related human rights violations.
