@bundeswirtschaftsministerium.de sabotiert die Durchsetzung des Lieferkettengesetzes durch das @bafa.de - obwohl das Gesetz nach wie vor unverändert in Kraft ist. Im CorA-Newsletter-Beitrag zeigen wir, warum das gegen rechtsstaatliche Grundsätze und die Gewaltenteilung verstößt.

The Ministry says there is "no doubt" about the BAFA's ability to work. But a mere look at the BAFA's organizational chart as it has been updated just 7 days ago (see picture below) calls that into question:

Ich durfte als Sachverständige im Menschenrechtsausschuss des @bundestag.de für @dielinkebt.de über das Lieferkettengesetz sprechen. ⏱️ Gutes Timing: Morgen diskutiert der Bundestag, ob das Lieferkettengesetz abgeschwächt werden soll – unter Verstoß gegen das menschenrechtliche Rückschrittsverbot! 🚫

Really enjoyed today's session at the UN BHR Forum, organized by @unep.org FI, @dimr.bsky.social and FIBS, 📣 "Voices at the Table: What Works (and What Doesn't) in Meaningful Stakeholder Engagement with Rights Holders". ⚠️ Spoiler: There is still quite a lot that doesn't work...

Recap of @boeckler-stiftung.bsky.social conference on "Counter-Power and Counterstrategies in Transnational Value Chains" yesterday: 💡 Remember, all of us are merely located at different points of the same exploitative system. What we need is collective mobilization along the entire value chain! 🔗🤝

📃🚪"Legislative amendment through the back door" - find below our legal analysis of the German ministries' directive ordering the authority under the Supply Chain Act NOT to make use of several of its enforcement powers. ⏭️ Long story short: There are considerable doubts about its legality.

💡 Corporate capture = "Corporate capture refers to how an economic elite (or the privileged 1%) undermines the realization of human rights and the environment by exerting influence over domestic and international decision-making spaces, including the United Nations." (Source: ESCR-Net)

📚 Recommended reading for all those interested in objectivizing again the discussions about supply chain laws, instead of following polemic debates about "bureaucratic monsters": @ecchr.bsky.social's report "2 Years of the German Supply Chain Act" out now in ENG! 👉 www.ecchr.eu/en/publicati...

"One having a clear majority." - What Jörgen Warborn fails to say: that this majority would rely on the far-right. The EP's Omnibus rapporteur openly threatening to vote with the far-right is a shocking demonstration of how the EPP is willing to put democracy at risk for the benefit of companies.

The German Ministry of Economics has just instructed the supervisory authority under the Supply Chain Act, BAFA, to not make use of several of its enforcement powers under the law - to act more "business friendly". It seems to have forgotten what "supervision" (and the separation of powers) mean...

Yesterday, we talked about the shift in discourse from sustainability to geopolitics at @boell.de and @swp-berlin.org and how this is being instrumentalized by business associations and an increasing number of politicians from Friedrich Merz to Emmanuel Macron to call for deregulating businesses. 🚨

Out now: @ecchr.bsky.social's 2024 annual report – including a piece by Annabell Brüggemann and me recapitulating the attacks on LkSG and CSDDD over the course of last year. Sadly, our analysis proves true all the same (or even more so) for what we’ve seen of 2025 so far. The fight continues!
