Summary
The Brazilian Ministry of Human Rights and Citizenship (MDHC) has established a Interministerial Working Group (GTI) to develop the National Policy on Human Rights and Businesses. The group, consisting of 17 representatives from the Executive Branch, will work for the next six months to create a policy that integrates human rights and economies. The MDHC minister, Silvio Almeida, emphasized that human rights are linked to economic development and that it is impossible to discuss human rights without discussing economic development.
The GTI will conduct studies on the national and international legal frameworks for protecting human rights in relation to business activities, propose measures to regulate the actions of companies in promoting and defending human rights, and implement policies that align with national and international guidelines.
