Dear colleagues,
Please join OECD Watch, ProDESC (Mexico), Programa Laboral de Desarrollo (PLADES, Peru), Conectas Direitos Humanos (Brazil), and Swedwatch (Sweden) at a practical online case workshop on using the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises and OECD due diligence guidance to assess corporate gender due diligence and consider avenues to remedy for adverse impacts.
Date: Tuesday, 17 May 2022
Time: 9-11am Mexico & Peru / 10-12pm Brazil / 4-6pm CET
Language: English, Spanish, Portuguese
RSVP: Please RSVP here [will update link]
Workshop participants will study the gender-specific impacts of multinational enterprises (MNEs) in real-world cases presented by civil society from:
- Mexico - addressing Indigenous women's land rights violations and other impacts caused by a wind energy project,
- Peru - addressing impacts to women textile workers, and
- Brazil - addressing impacts to women coffee plantation workers labouring in slavery-like conditions.
First, through applying OECD Watch's CSO Guide on Gender Due Diligence to each case, participants will learn how to evaluate and identify gaps in MNEs’ gender due diligence in real world case examples. Next, through an introduction to the OECD Guidelines and its complaint system, participants will learn how to determine whether a Guidelines complaint is a viable and worthwhile avenue to addressing those gaps, and if so, how to proceed with filing one.
We hope you can join us and look forward to engaging with you!
-OECD Watch and partners |
