knowledge gathered, of the meaningful academic research,and of the practical
progress achieved throughout this agenda after the first ten years
of the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs): a key
normative framework that dates back to 2011 and to the norm entrepreneurial
role of John G. Ruggie to avoid and address Human Rights abuses in business
activities and to stimulate regulations and ongoing transformations of global
value chains, meaningful stakeholder engagement and rightsholder-driven
remedy.
