Description

The responsibility of supply chains and value chains is an emerging trend in Europe, the US and other parts of the world. Human rights violations by agents in a certain supply or value chain are one of the most common issues when we look at the current ongoing cases in Europe and US. The goal of this panel will be to discuss the current state of affairs on the topic and also to try to anticipate what the next challenges to deal with will be in the coming years.
