Bonsucro and Responsible Jewellery Council engaged Business & Human Rights consultancy twentyfifty Ltd to conduct a research project on learning and good practice from the experience of ISEAL Community Members in implementing Human Rights Due Diligence (HRDD) in line with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs). 

This briefing note provides a summary of the key findings from desk-based research and interviews with representatives of ISEAL and eight ISEAL Community Members. Its objective is to support ISEAL Community Members and other multi-stakeholder initiatives (MSIs) and voluntary sustainability standards’ (VSS) in strengthening their implementation of the UNGPs, which is increasingly a requirement of several international frameworks and national legislations.

This research was carried out as part of the 'Accessing learning in due diligence and grievance mechanisms' project, supported by the ISEAL Innovations Fund between October 2021 - June 2022. Explore other outputs from this project:
