Online Webinar over ZoomWar, Law and Business:
A conversation about corporate responsibility in international humanitarian law and what the business and human rights dialogue is missing
In today카지노 게임 컬렉션™s globalised economy it is common for companies 카지노 게임 컬렉션“ their personnel, assets, supply chains and customers 카지노 게임 컬렉션“ to be present in areas of the world affected by armed conflict. No longer are these environments dominated by militaries and armed groups, but also private individuals with their own roles, rights and responsibilities. The business and human rights dialogue has recently shifted some of the focus to the increased risk of business-related human rights abuses in armed conflict, and the need for heighted action on the part of corporate actors in these contexts. However, little attention is paid to the unique and universally-accepted set of rules that apply in situations of armed conflict 카지노 게임 컬렉션“ international humanitarian law (IHL).
For the past four years, Australian Red Cross and RMIT 카지노게임사이트 have worked together to help familiarise Australian businesses with IHL. Also known as the laws of war, IHL provides minimum standards of humanity that must be observed by anyone directly or inadvertently caught up in armed conflict. Companies that breach the rules of IHL 카지노 게임 컬렉션“ or help others to do so 카지노 게임 컬렉션“ aside from the harm to human life, may face reputational damage, financial loss and legal accountability against the company and its leaders. Taking the necessary steps towards understanding and implementing IHL will not only help businesses mitigate these risks but, more importantly, help to ensure corporations play their part in creating better humanitarian outcomes for communities experiencing war.
Join us for this conversation about corporate responsibility in conflict settings and learn how current and future leaders 카지노 게임 컬렉션“ in business, but also in other fields 카지노 게임 컬렉션“ can use IHL and the innovative guidance tools and educational experiences we have developed to lead in a more ethical and sustainable way.
