Navigating Human Rights Risks in Conflict and Crisis Contexts
How should companies respond when operating in or sourcing from areas affected by conflict, political repression, or humanitarian crisis? This session explores the elevated human rights risks that arise in such contexts — and what sustainability, sourcing, and compliance professionals can do to meet their responsibilities, even in fragile environments.
In this session, you’ll learn:
What international frameworks say about business responsibilities in conflict zones
Red flags and heightened risks in conflict and crises contexts
How to conduct enhanced human rights due diligence in high-risk settings
How to responsibly disengage or adapt sourcing strategies under pressure
Especially relevant for companies with operations or suppliers in politically unstable, militarized, or post-disaster regions.
