Description
10:00am – 11:20am The importance of rights holder perspectives in the design of remedial mechanisms
This session will focus on the importance of meaningful engagement with rights holders in the development and operation of non-judicial remedial systems. Taking the Fair Food Program (FFP) as a case study, the session will explore the role of rights holders in the development of the FFP, the FFP's model for addressing accountability and remedy, how the model has influenced developments in other sectors and countries, and how rights holders have been instrumental in this expansion. Panelists will discuss the benefits of this approach for rights holders and companies, as well as how to replicate this approach in other contexts.
