The 3rd Annual Symposium was held on November 10th 2021 at Sheraton Kampala Hotel and was organized to provide stakeholders with a space to reflect on the opportunities presented by the adoption of the NAPBHR by Government of Uganda and utilize this regulatory framework to ensure more responsible business conduct in Uganda.
Based on the theme ‘Looking ahead: Partnership for effective implementation of the National Action Plan on Business and Human Rights in Uganda,’ the 3rd annual symposium focused on the development of the National Action Plan on Business and Human Rights (“NAPBHR”) process in Uganda while identifying lessons learnt, and existing opportunities in promoting Business and Human Rights through a regulated business environment and identifying challenges associated with the process in Uganda. It was organised by Resource Rights Africa and DanChurchAid in collaboration with the Ministry of Gender Labour and Social Development, Avocats Sans Frontiers (ASF), Southern and Eastern Africa Trade Information and Negotiations Institute (SEATINI) Uganda, Uganda Human Rights Commission and United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights.
