Lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic: How can Canadian companies fulfil their responsibility to respect human rights and meet stakeholder expectations on the SDGs?

The COVID-19 crisis has emphasised many pre-existing challenges in the operations and supply chains of global companies, including some practices that undermine the livelihood and human dignity of those affected.

Join us, together with Global Compact Canada, SHARE and Corporate Knights for a virtual roundtable discussion with a group of Canadian companies on best practice, opportunities, and challenges that companies may be facing in prioritising human rights and meeting stakeholder expectations on the Sustainable Development Goals in the wake of the COVID crisis.

The roundtable will also delve into findings from our COVID-19 and Human Rights Study, as well as data from the Corporate Human Rights Benchmark.
