Public Eye Awards 2013
For the annual "Public Eye Awards", which the organisers (Greenpeace Switzerland & Berne Declaration) say are for the "worst cases of corporate human rights abuses and environmental misdeeds", seven companies were nominated in January 2013.
Business & Human Rights Resource Centre invited the companies to respond to this press release detailing the reasons for their nominations:
- Alstom response [DOC]
- Coal India did not respond

- Rejoinder from John Grayson & Adri Neiuwhof in openDemocracy to G4S response
- We invited G4S to respond to this rejoinder and it referred us to its earlier response

On 24 January 2013 it was announced that Shell had "won" the Public Eye Award 2012, and that a separate award had also been conferred on Goldman Sachs, by a jury.
