[Jerry C. Nwigwe]

Dear All,

 

We are delighted to share with you that Leadership Initiative for Transformation and Empowerment (LITE) will be organizing a Business and Human Rights Forum in  Port Harcourt as part of our effort to mobilize and sensitize Nigerians on business and human rights frameworks as an Accountability tool. 

 

The event will take place on Wednesday 14th, May 2014 at Elkan Terrace Hotel, GRA Phase 3, Port Harcourt, Nigeria.

 

Time:  9am  to 2pm. 

 

The theme of this event will be: Developing an effective Grievance Mechanisms within the Extractive Sector in Nigeria.

 

 

The Business and Human Rights Forum is expected to examine the existing grievance mechanisms set up by industry players to be able to strengthen it and seek ways to sensitize key stakeholders, government, companies and civil society on their role to monitor, promote and advocate for corporate accountability standards including the UN Guiding Principles and Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights.

 

 

 

Kind regards

Jerry,

It will be nice if this turns out to be an issue-based meeting of the big players on industrial relations in the extraction industries, with perspectives on human rights.  It will also be very helpful if the key discussion topics/papers are circulated before the date, especially for those who may want to share experiences on the subject matter.

Regards.
