2. Weekly Updates
Our free global Weekly Update sends the top stories on business and human rights to over 15,000 subscribers worldwide, many of whom are opinion-formers. We invite companies to respond to reports that criticise their conduct, and include their responses alongside the original reports. This keeps the Updates balanced, and encourages companies to publicly address human rights concerns being raised by civil society.
