Strategy Development & Advisory

Companies and investors face growing expectations to show how they identify and address their human rights impacts. The regulatory landscape and reporting requirements on modern slavery and human rights and environmental due diligence, among others, are continuously evolving. Meanwhile, civil society and consumers increasingly scrutinise companies’ reporting on positive social impacts.

Drawing on our backgrounds in human rights law, advocacy and compliance, we work closely with leading companies and investors to design and implement tailored human rights policies and strategies aligned with leading international frameworks. We work continuously with clients to help them implement their social impact and human rights strategy and stay in front of emerging risks in their operations and value chains.
