The Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights has announced distribution of a new publication emerging from the OHCHR's excellent Accountability and Remedy Project (ARP). It is entitled Access to Remedy in Cases of Business-related Human Rights Abuse: An Interpretive Guide.
This from the Press Release:
This interpretive guide provides additional background explanation on the principles of the access to remedy pillar of the Guiding Principles so as to support a full understanding of their meaning and intent. It aims to equip all actors, whether specialist or non-specialist, with the knowledge and insights needed for more productive engagement and advocacy in relation to access to remedy for business and human rights harms in a wide range of contexts.
This is an advance version of the guide; a professionally designed and translated version of the guide will be published as soon as it is ready.
The publication is highly recommended as are the other ARP publications.
