11 March 2013

Filmed interview with Rae Lindsay of Clifford Chance and Yasmin Batliwala of A4ID (Advocates for International Development), a global charity committed to ensuring legal support is available for those involved in the fight against poverty.

In this interview, they discuss the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights and how they may apply to the legal world.

At the vanguard of the debate, Lindsay and Batliwala examine the complex ethical challenges facing lawyers, whose responsibility to the Principles must be reconciled with duties of privilege and confidentiality.
