Published

Focus

Business

This publication contains guidance developed through the OHCHR Accountability and Remedy Project as regards enhancing the effectiveness of non-State-based grievance mechanisms in cases of business-related human rights abuse. It captures lessons from “good practices” with regard to the design and operation of such mechanisms, and relevant legal and policy issues. The guidance addresses:

  • how States can work towards developing a legal and policy space that enables non-State-based grievance mechanisms to make a positive contribution to accountability and remedy; and
  • how developers and operators of non-State-based grievance mechanisms can enhance the effectiveness of their mechanisms, as well as take advantage of opportunities for greater cooperation with other entities and mechanisms.
