By promoting the implementation of the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-newsroom.com\/press\/countlinks\/199665\/https:%7D%7Dwww.ohchr.org%7Den%7Dpublications%7Dreference-publications%7Dguiding-principles-business-and-human-rights-implementing\/website\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights<\/a>, the initiative will better equip governments and companies to understand and act upon their duties and responsibilities to prevent abuses such as forced labor, land grabbing and discrimination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project will serve two main purposes. First, it will guide companies to carry out Human Rights Due Diligence (HRDD)&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">to assess, prevent and mitigate adverse impacts.&nbsp;<\/a>To achieve this, UNDP will support Japanese companies and their suppliers in managing human rights risks potentially associated with their operations. The companies will also benefit from this process, as&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">businesses that demonstrate clean operations have clear advantages in placing their products on the market.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second objective of the project is to help the 17 target countries&nbsp;<a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">develop policies to tackle business-related human rights abuses. UNDP will work with governments to create a level playing field that will motivate more companies to embrace responsible business practices.&nbsp;<\/a>The project will be implemented by UNDP\u2019s Country Offices in Ghana, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Kyrgyzstan, Lao People\u2019s Democratic Republic, Mexico, Mongolia, Mozambique, Nepal, Pakistan, Peru, Thailand, Tunisia, Turkey, Ukraine, Viet Nam. Training and guidance to Japanese companies will also be provided in Japan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\" id=\"press-quote\"><p>Businesses have a role to play in achieving the SDGs and meeting the targets set by the Paris Agreement<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>With this project, UNDP and Japan will further the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the 2030 Agenda.

As the development actor with the largest dedicated field presence in this thematic area, UNDP has supported businesses in tackling social justice issues, both within their operations and in advocating for wider policy and regulation changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBusinesses have a role to play in achieving the SDGs and meeting the targets set by the Paris Agreement,\u201d said Asako Okai, Assistant Secretary-General, Assistant Administrator, and Director, Crisis Bureau, UNDP.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWith this new project, UNDP and the Government of Japan join hands to support businesses in their efforts to comply with human rights standards, and to advocate with governments for better policies and legislation to protect rights and stimulate responsible businesses. In our current context, they also have potential to become engines of just recovery from COVID-19, including in fragile and crisis-affected contexts. To build forward better, we need concerted and urgent action,\u201d said ASG Okai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project will be implemented through&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-newsroom.com\/press\/countlinks\/199665\/https:%7D%7Dwww.rolhr.undp.org%7Dcontent%7Druleoflaw%7Den%7Dhome%7D\/website\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">UNDP\u2019s Global Programme for Rule of Law, Human Rights, Justice and Security for Sustainable Peace and Development<\/a>&nbsp;(the Global Programme) &nbsp;in coordination with partners active in the field of responsible business such as UN Human Rights Office (OHCHR), International Labour Organization (ILO) and Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This new initiative complements&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-newsroom.com\/press\/countlinks\/199665\/https:%7D%7Dbizhumanrights.asia-pacific.undp.org%7Dcontent%7Dbizhumanrights%7Den%7Dhome.html\/website\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">UNDP\u2019s continuous work on Business and Human Rights<\/a>.
