#HRDD #BusinessAndHumanRights
The #CSDDD lost ground on #OECDGuidelines alignment after the Omnibus amendments — but gaps can still be closed through national transposition, EC guidance, and the 2031 review.

Very grateful to those @nearfm.ie for the opportunity to discuss important #BusinessandHumanRights issues that are impacting us in Ireland as well as @trocaire.bsky.social partners in the Global South, including #CSDDD and #CETA. Listen to the full interview here:

I really enjoyed the experience of doing this interview with the amazing folks at Save Our Sperrins, covering #BusinessandHumanRights and much more besides. The podcast series features great conversations with better people, so do take time to listen.

The #LBI must close the "remedy deficit," ending jurisdictional barriers, ensuring HRDD is an Obligation of Result, and establishing the Primacy of Human Rights (Art. 14) to shield states from ISDS.

Why are organisations like @Trocaire that work toward social and environmental justice calling for a #bindingtreaty on #businessandhumanrights? Here Quelvin Jimenez from our Guatemalan partner @PAPXIGUA outlines the reasons.
A Treaty would ensure companies be held liable for their actions, allowing for sanctions, withdrawal of licenses and criminal liability for severe abuses and impacts.
It’s simple: we need a treaty, and we need one now! #BusinessAndHumanRights #BindingTreaty @cidse.bsky.social @eccjorg.bsky.social
On Day 4 of the negotiations for a #bindingtreaty for #businessandhumanrights @trocaire.bsky.social partner Udiel Miranda, Director of COPAE Guatemala, called on states to support the Chair's proposals for joint and several liability all corporate actors involved in human rights violations.
"Where is Ireland?" At the end of Day 3 of the negotiations in Geneva for a #bindingtreaty on #businessandhumanrights I asked Brid Brennan of the @tninstitute.bsky.social about Ireland's notable absence from the proceedings.
On Day 3 of the negotiations for a #bindingtreaty on #businessandhumanrights at the UN in Geneva, we heard a powerful intervention by @trocaire.bsky.social partner the Xinka Parliament's legal advisor Quelvin Jiménez.
As the negotiations for a #bindingtreaty on #businessandhumanrights heads into Day 3, Susana Hernandez of @cidse.bsky.social summarises the first 2 days of the session, where oil-rich Gulf States have been to the fore in defending trade and investment agreements. @trocaire.bsky.social
Incredibly proud to be here in Geneva advocating for a #bindingtreaty on #businessandhumanrights in the company of such a strong and committed defender as Margarita. Those who defend life should be celebrated - instead in our upside down system they are attacked and imprisoned. We need a Treaty.
On Day 2 of the 11th Session of negotiations for a #bindingtreaty on #businessandhumanrights, the delegates heard the powerful opening statement from Margarita Domingo, Mayan indigenous woman representing @trocaire.bsky.social partner the Council of Mayan Peoples, which generated applause.
Happy to be here at the United Nations in Geneva in the company of @trocaire.bsky.social partners from Guatemala for the 11th Session of negotiations for a #bindingtreaty on #BusinessandHumanRights.
💡 Together with @menneskeretdk.bsky.social and Ingrid Quinn, the session invited participants to explore the boundaries between State obligations and corporate responsibilities under the UN Guiding Principles on #BusinessandHumanRights
