The objectives of the roundtable included introducing the latest international policy developments (in particular the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights); demystifying the agenda by clarifying the link between human rights and business; building the business case by discussing using human rights as a way to understand and implement corporate social responsibilities; and exchanging experiences by exchanging good practices, dilemmas and challenges for corporations (in ASEAN and around the world) in implementing the corporate responsibility to respect human rights in their operations.
