Addressing human rights risks in global supply chains is a critical responsibility for organizations today. Uncovering and managing these risks goes beyond immediate operations and extends to every supplier, partner, and stakeholder involved in the value chain. With an evolving global regulatory landscape, the need to identify and mitigate human rights risks is not only a moral obligation but also a business imperative.

Key takeaways from the discussion include:
