Business, Human Rights and the SDGs in the Pacific were the focus of DTP’s first online human rights capacity building program. The region has so far contained the COVID-19 pandemic better than any region in the world, but the economic impacts are devastating to a region so affected by the climate emergency. Over four weeks, the course emphasised the role of the UN Guiding Principles in helping Pacific governments, their development partners, business and civil society to build back better. There were over 40 participants from 11 Pacific island countries.
The course continues a collaboration between DTP, OHCHR, PIANGO, BHRRC and CCF - and the UN Working Group on Business and Human Rights - and took place ahead of the 1st Regional Pacific Forum on Business and Human Rights on December 1st-2nd.
DTP acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land on which we work, the Bedegal people of the Eora Nation. We recognise their lands were never ceded, and we acknowledge their struggles for recognition and rights and pay our respects to the Elders – past, present – and the youth who are working towards a brighter tomorrow. This continent always was and always will be Aboriginal land.
