The House of Sustainability and the Enterprise Europe Network, with the participation of representatives of the Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs and the Ministry of the Economy, are pleased to invite you to join us online on 8 May from 11.00 AM to 12.30 PM for a webinar dedicated to human rights due diligence.

The webinar will begin with an overview of the European regulatory framework, providing background information on which companies are covered when and what the key topics are.

Afterwards, the National Pact on Business and Human Rights will be presented. The Pact is a voluntary commitment for companies preparing for the CSDDD and for companies wishing to make a voluntary commitment to respect human rights internally and in their chain of business. It provides your company with the key elements to understand the expectations in terms of respect for human rights, as well as the tools to implement due diligence.

Main target group: Luxembourg-based organisations with an international chain of activities and/or human rights risks
