Canadian Business for Social Responsibility - 9th Annual Summit. October 26, 2011 - Toronto...What does human rights due diligence look like? How can potential human rights impacts be assessed and mitigated? How do companies track the effectiveness of their interventions? Join leading thinkers from industry, civil society and government as they provide perspectives on how the UN Protect, Respect, Remedy Framework for Business and Human Rights will impact corporate Canada’s approach to respecting human rights outside of Canada. The focus will be on what Canadian companies should be doing now to ensure compliance with the second pillar’s operational principles. [speakers from Talisman Energy, Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada (DFAIT), Canadian Human Rights Commission]
