Dal 24/06/2019 ore 09.00 al 28/06/2019 ore 18.00
Temple University, Rome Campus, Lungotevere Arnaldo da Brescia 15 - 00196 Roma
The Summer school will provide participant scholars (students, researchers, NGO workers, lawyers, CSR experts and other public and private sector practitioners) with comprehensive knowledge of the legal mechanisms and tools applicable in the field of business and human rights while keeping up with current relevant developments at national, regional and international level. A specific focus will be afforded to the content and impact of the 2011 UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, their implementation at national and international level, as well as to the discussions on a Treaty on Business and Human Rights.
Lectures, featuring some of the most important experts of this area, will be organized around three Modules: the State duty to protect human rights; the corporate responsibility to respect human rights; and the victims’ access to remedy. The Summer, the first in Italy entirely devoted to the contemporary business and human rights debate, is the result of the scientific collaboration of Iriss-Cnr with the Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies, the University of Milan, the Human Rights International Corner association. The Summer school received the endorsement of the Inter-Ministerial Committee on Human Rights (CIDU). Marco Fasciglione, researcher Iriss-Cnr and one of the Co-directors of the Summer Course, will hold the concluding speech of the opening conference at the Italian Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation.
