UNDP in the Kyrgyz Republic invites businesses to participate in the training on Human Rights Due Diligence in Business Operations

UNDP, with support from the Government of Japan, is making available a three-step guidance service to Japanese companies and their suppliers to better know the human rights impacts associated with their operations and establishing appropriate due diligence processes.

On January 26-27, 2023, the second human rights due diligence training within the Academy of Business and Human Rights will be held in Kyrgyzstan, based on research on human rights country context analysis and taking into account the needs of Japanese companies and their suppliers. The training will be conducted in Russian, with simultaneous translation into Japanese for representatives of 30-35 commercial companies, with participation of international and national expert trainers.

Priority in the selection of participants will be given to:
