Welcome to the Business and Human Rights in Action panel, sponsored by the ASIL Human Rights Interest Group. Business and Human Rights is an evolving field that has gone through many changes in recent years, with new legislative developments and private initiatives designed to improve corporate social responsibility practices and respect for human rights. Meanwhile, the Alien Torts Claims Act has been limited by the U.S. Supreme Court, and stakeholders have faced challenges involving corporations in transitional justice initiatives.
