Business and Human Rights Resource Centre

The Business & Human Rights Resource Centre (BHRRC) is an independent, international non-profit organization that works to advance human rights in business and hold companies accountable for their impacts on people and communities. It operates as a global watchdog and knowledge hub, tracking the human rights performance of over 10,000 companies worldwide and making this information publicly available. BHRRC investigates abuses linked to corporate activity, such as labor rights violations, land grabbing, discrimination, and environmental harm, while also highlighting positive business practices that respect human rights. The organization engages directly with companies, asking them to respond to allegations raised by civil society, workers, and affected communities, and it publishes those responses to encourage transparency and accountability. Its work covers every region, including the Middle East and North Africa, where it produces regional briefings, conducts research, and collaborates with local partners to shed light on business-related human rights issues. BHRRC is widely used by policymakers, investors, activists, academics, and journalists as a trusted resource for evidence-based information on the intersection of business and human rights.
