This Business and Human Rights Primer for Government Mission Personnel is for all Government mission personnel – from diplomats to embassy, mission, and agency staff – whatever their responsibilities, and wherever they work.
The primer provides an overview of business and human rights and the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. Crucially, it includes practical resources to help mission personnel meaningfully engage with the business and human rights issues that arise in the field.
The primer is designed to equip government mission personnel to communicate clear expectations that can help advance business respect for human rights.
