This week: Andrew Wallis, CEO of anti-slavery NGO Unseen, talks about the ongoing challenges for migrant worker protection for business in the UK and beyond. He discusses the importance of good human rights legislations to establish the right level playing field, and shares some examples of what good collaboration looks like.
Plus: a new Conservation International and We Mean Business Coalition survey shows strong corporate dedication to meet climate targets, including using carbon offsets, despite on-going debate over their certification; why the planet is on the brink of critical climate thresholds according to Stanford and Colorado State Universities; more detail of the UK's nature-positive payments for farmers scheme; and Shopify highlights sustainability-conscious consumer choices despite current economic climate, in the news digest.
And, further information on the responsible sourcing and ethical trade forum taking place in London on 29th-30th March in London from Innovation Forum's Emily Heslop.
