SUMMARY:Promoting responsible supply chains in Asia\, connecting western 
 and Asian lawyers
DESCRIPTION:Western and Asian companies are well connected through their 
 supply chains. Beyond the regions\, international instruments\, such as 
 the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights\, the OECD MNE Gu
 idelines\, and the ILO Tripartite Declaration of Principles\, as well as
  supply chain regulations\, such as UK Modern Slavery Act\, have been en
 couraging companies to promote human rights\, decent work and sustainabl
 e development through their global supply chains. These “responsible sup
 ply chains movements” create opportunities for Western and Asian lawyers
  to combine their experience to help companies navigate the risks that a
 rise though the supply chains. Meanwhile\, such collaboration may be cha
 llenging due to the jurisdictional\, institutional\, and cultural differ
 ences that exist.\n\nIn this session\, Western and Asian lawyers get tog
 ether to exchange their views on how to guide companies in conducting du
 e diligence and in creating and operating grievance mechanisms through t
 he supply chains.
