How businesses can establish powerful partnerships on human rights workshop

Is your business concerned with how to engage meaningfully on human rights within their seafood supply chains? If so, please join speakers from government, civil society, academia, private business and migrant fishers to discussing how businesses can drive change within their value chains.

The SEA Alliance are hosting this 50 minute session to bring together diverse actors across the labour and human rights field to provide an impactful deep-dive for businesses considering this topic.
