For a UN #BindingTreaty on transnational corporations and human rights
An International Tribunal to deliberate on corporate crimes turns affected communities’ long-standing calls for justice into reality.
The struggle for a #BindingTreaty on transnational corporations and human rights is far more than a struggle for corporate regulation.
It is a struggle for life, dignity and the sovereignty of peoples long sacrificed on the altar of corporate profit.

We need a legally #BindingTreaty to pave the way for justice for the peoples affected by corporate violations and to hold those very same transnational corporations to account.
Relying on corporations to voluntarily regulate themselves presents a clear conflict of interest and will never work
Regardless of ambiguity or conflict between the #BindingTreaty and any other international agreement, human rights must always prevail, and the peoples and communities affected by transnational corporations must always receive the most effective remedy.
Transnational corporations have been central drivers of today’s climate and ecological crises and continue to use denial, delay and disinformation to block meaningful climate action.

Affected peoples and communities are the heart of the UN #BindingTreaty on transnational corporations and human rights
The treaty needs to reflect this reality and centre their lived experiences
@fian-international.bsky.social
The #BindingTreaty meant to secure access to justice for those affected by transnational corporations must centre the needs of those communities and peoples, not the desires of corporations.
From the Amazon to Palestine, it’s time to #StopCorporateImpunity
At the #BindingTreaty intersessionals, we’re gathering with affected communities and social movements to demand an end to corporate impunity.
Transnational corporations are sacrificing peoples and planet in the name of profit. We need a legally binding instrument to dismantle their corporate power.
We're at the #BindingTreaty intersessionals in Geneva, Switzerland, as part of @stoptncimpunity.bsky.social to demand an end to corporate impunity.
Alongside affected communities and social movements, we remain steadfast in our fight for an effective treaty that dismantles corporate power.
📢 Next week CIDSE is in #Geneva for the UN treaty negotiations on corporate accountability. Article by article, we'll be pushing to make sure affected communities have a voice in the room — and that states listen.
Stay tuned. 👇 #BindingTreaty #BizHumanRights

⚖️ JOINT & LIABILITY IN #BINDINGTREATY NEGOTIATIONS
We welcome the inclusion of joint & several liability in the treaty but the current wording has some loopholes that let corporations off the hook.
We demand a #BindingTreaty that regulates transnational corporations throughout the value chain, centres affected communities and ensures reparations and non-repetition of human rights violations
#HumanRights must prevail over profit. Alongside
@stoptncimpunity.bsky.social, we're fighting for life
