Applications are now open for the 2025 UN Global Compact Business & Human Rights Accelerator Program. The Business & Human Rights Accelerator is a six-month programme that activates participating companies of the UN Global Compact across all industries and regions to move from commitment to action on human rights and labour rights. Through identifying salient human rights impacts, establishing an ongoing human rights due diligence process
and developing an actionable plan, the Business & Human Rights Accelerator will empower your company to advance its
human rights journey.
The programme is designed to help your company understand when, where and how it has impacts on human rights and
helps you prioritize these impacts for action. You will gain the skills to identify the right measures to mitigate risks, monitor the effectiveness of your efforts, and communicate your progress clearly.
