Summer School Structure and Contents
In line with the polycentric governance system underpinning the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, the Summer School analyses the rules and the tools concerning the State duty to protect human rights, the corporate responsibility to respect human rights, and the victims’ access to remedy.
The Summer School aims at providing students, academics, corporations, NGOs, lawyers, CSR experts, consultancies, institutions, public-and private-sector practitioners with comprehensive knowledge of the legal mechanisms and tools applicable in the field of business and human rights while keeping up with current relevant developments at national, regional and international level.
To this aim it follows a smart-mix approach, composed of theoretical and practical classes and forums given by lecturers with different backgrounds, including academics, NGOs, lawyers, corporations, consultants, public institutions’ officers.
The sessions are spread over five days and require participants’ full-time commitment.
