Campaign Goals

We are currently focusing on greater access to justice for victims of corporate abuse. We are campaigning for the creation of a UK Commission for Business, Human Rights and the Environment in coalition with CORE.

During our Big Dress campaign which focused on the Company's Act in 2006 we decided on 3 main goals which would guide all our Corporate Accountability work. 

Accountable - expand the legal duties of company directors to include a broader "duty of care", meaning they would have to consider the impact of their decisions on communities, employees and the environment when making decisions, rather than just profit.

Careful - communities abroad shuold be able to seek compensation in the UK, if unable to do so in their own country, for serious environmental damage or human rights abuses by UK companies, including their subsidiaries.

Transparent - we need all MNCs to report annually on their social and environmental impact, in the UK and abroad, with reporting standards to ensure their reports are accurate and comprehensive.

We are aiming to achieve this through lobbying our politicians with Pray & post cards and also a creative MP3 Petition to play outside parliament!
