Vinculando al G20 con los negocios y derechos humanos

Initially organised by major economies in response to the Asian financial crisis in 1999, the G20 began as a forum for finance ministers and central bank governors to meet once a year and discuss international economic issues. Since then, focus has expanded from primarily economic crisis issues to include nine pillars of economic development. This includes infrastructure, private investment and job creation, human resources development, trade, financial inclusion, food security, governance, and knowledge sharing. The collective leadership of the G20 presents an opportunity for the business and human rights movement to get big issues related to our work discussed at a high level, with the possibility of broad commitments from governments. However, this forum, as an advocacy target for business and human rights issues, is relatively under-explored and we are only just seeing momentum from the likes of ICAR and the German Institute to engage significantly. After the 2015 German G7 Presidency pledge to promote safe and sustainable supply chains, this years G20 presents another opening for business and human rights issues to be placed on the international agenda. This blog series looks to encourage dialogue on the opportunitites and challenges in engaging the G20 on issues of business and human rights.
