SUBMISSION TO THE UN Working Group on Business and Human Rights

October 13, 2023 – Inspiration on how to apply the UNGPs to Responsible Investments (ESG)

This draft guide to investors on how to implement the UNGPs in practice is built on GLOBAL CSR’s contributions from 2020 to the Investor Alliance for Human Rights: “Investor Toolkit on Human Rights” ( https://investorsforhumanrights.org/sites/default/files/attachments/2022- 03/Full%20Report%20Investor%20Toolkit%20on%20Human%20Rights%20May%202020_upda ted.pdf).

The present draft was updated with subsequent experiences, insights, and practises by the authors:
Tara Skadegaard Thorsen, Associate Manager ESG and Sustainable Finance, Ramboll Management Consulting, in her former capacity as Senior Consultant at GLOBAL CSR, and Sune Skadegaard Thorsen, CEO and Attorney at Law, GLOBAL CSR.

It is our hope that the contribution can assist the UN Working Group on Business and Human Rights in advancing the scaling up of ‘respect for human rights’ with business enterprises all over the world as envisioned through the tremendous efforts of late Prof. John G. Ruggie, when creating the foundation for such change with the UNGPs.

Copenhagen, 13. October 2023.
