How NGOs Factor into the Discussion

Part 1: The Role of NGO’s in Preventing Human Rights Violations in Supply Chains

Anti-Slavery is in NGO’s DNA

Three Centuries Later, This Issue Is Still on the Map

Why Does Their Voice Matter?

NGO Circle of Influence

Example of NGO Scrutiny & Impact

Reputational Damage

What Are the Accusations?

“Many of these multinationals say they have a zero tolerance policy for child labor. But this

promise is not worth the paper it is written when the companies are not investigating their

suppliers." - Mark Dummett

AI business & human rights researcher

Expected Outcomes

Amnesty hopes their report will result in the following outcomes:

Businesses take steps to prevent

human rights violations in supply

chains

Governments enact laws obligating companies to

check and disclose sources of materials and

suppliers

Finding Solutions

Part 2: Due Diligence

Understanding Due Diligence

“[a process in place] to identify, prevent, mitigate and account for how they (companies) address their

impacts on human rights.”- UN Guiding Principles

“an on-going, proactive and reactive process through which companies can ensure that they respect human rights and do not contribute to

conflict.”- OECD

Key Steps for Due Diligence

Identifying and assessing risks in the supply chain

Mitigating and responding to risk

Engaging with suppliers and building capacity

Carrying out independent targeted third-party audits at identified points in the supply chain

Public disclosure

Step 1: Identifying & Assessing Risk

Step 2: Mitigating & Responding to Risk

Step 3: Engaging with Suppliers & Building Capacity

Step 4: Due Diligence Audits

Step 5: Disclosure

Live & Responsive Data Solutions

A key challenge that emerges from all of the above steps is that of complex information management:

“One of our big challenges is complex information management… Even if I have all the information about

locations and products, how do I manage that volume of data? It changes every day, and any data solution has to be

live and responsive.”

Fighting Human Trafficking in Supply Chains

= Good for Business, Good for Everyone

From defensive to strategic: Demonstrating due diligence and best practice in responding to human rights violations in supply chains is good for business, it is strategic and gives a company a competitive edge. Example: Nike

One step at a time:Start with first 2 Tiers of your supply chain, then move upwards. This is a long term process and commitment.

Good for everyone:In the long run ethical sourcing and supply chain transparency means is better for business, better for people, and better for global economic development.
