This Corporate Legal Accountability Quarterly Update explores key developments in corporate accountability for human rights abuses in the last quarter, including:

  • A Highlight by EarthRights International, analysing the landmark ruling of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights in favour of the land, cultural and environmental rights of U’wa Indigenous People.
  • Updates to lawsuits profiles, including lawsuits against Danone (re plastic use and pollution, filed in France), NSO (re hacking WhatsApp users, filed in the USA), and RWE (re climate change in Peru, filed in Germany).
  • Plus, more legal updates and key resources on corporate legal accountability.
