Given the range of current threats to human rights globally, and the need to ensure greater accountability for corporate human rights abuses, coordinated investor action is needed to press companies to uphold their responsibility to respect human rights, and make sure governments and other actors create environments that protect human rights and enable responsible business conduct.

To help meet this challenge, the Investor Alliance for Human Rights provides investors with a platform to engage companies on human rights, as well as states and standard-setting bodies to ensure these create policies and standards to prevent negative corporate human rights impacts, and hold companies accountable when they fail to do so.

In this process, the Investor Alliance increases investor leverage and capacity to identify, assess and address human rights and business issues through targeted action, education and multi-stakeholder engagement.
