Congratulations to the whole team have worked so hard on this – I’m delighted to see our strong new logo and visual identity. The new organisational name reinforces our mission as it has evolved over the last 12 years.

My latest opinion piece with Heidi Hautala on the proposed US-EU trade deal, which potentially marks a worrying capitulation by Europe via promises to gut its sustainability due diligence legislation.

Thanks to Sustainable Views for their ongoing spotlight on the issue of corporate impunity in the occupied Palestinian territories. Businesses may think their activities in the occupied territories will have no repercussions, but this complacency will come back to bite them.

An important briefing from Chris Avery and team at Donations and Democracy, exposing the UK-based multinationals continuing to fund politicians who had tried to overturn the results of a democratic election. Great to have this accountability of UK companies and trade associations

UN experts have repeatedly warned of "patterns of genocidal conduct" & other war crimes in Gaza. Business leaders have a choice—but they are running out of time. From me & @irenepietropaoli.bsky.social in today's FT @sustainableviews.bsky.social.

Some personal news, as well as news from the organisation I am so proud to lead. After 12 amazing years as Executive Director, the time has come for me to move aside and allow @business-humanrights.org to bring in a new leader later this year.

I'll be joining an excellent line up of speakers at ABN AMRO's Human Rights Conference on 22 May to discuss the current state of access to remedy and grievance mechanisms and the system-level changes needed to improve access to remedy. Register: humanrightsconference.abnamro-event.nl

The EU Parliament vote on omnibus is deeply disappointing. The enormous challenge of directing business to contribute to shared prosperity and climate recovery cannot be wished away. Me & Heidi Hautala for FT Sustainable Views: www.sustainableviews.com/profound-cyn...

This is profoundly disturbing. The lawsuit has been widely denounced as a classic SLAPP - which Energy Transfer denies - and it's far from the only case of energy companies silencing critics. www.business-humanrights.org/en/latest-ne...

Von der Leyen's "omnibus proposal" signals a shift towards a Trump-influenced deregulatory agenda that prioritises market freedoms over public interest. EU Parliament & member states must not eviscerate corporate sustainability. Mary Robinson & me for @euobserver.com: euobserver.com/eu-political...
