Pleasure speaking with @James_Cockayne, discussing the current landscape of sustainability and modern slavery work and exploring opportunities for collaboration. Businesses must ensure ethical practices are embedded in every part of their operations.

Trots op de stap die Europa zet naar een rechtvaardigere wereld, weg van uitbuiting en milieuvervuiling. Het Europees Parlement stemde zojuist voor de anti-wegkijkwet!

Finally, the MS got their act together and reached an agreement on the #CSDDD. The price was a significant dilution of the level of ambition, but the core of this transformative legislation remains intact. The #UNGP will be, for the first time, codified in EU law.

⛓️ In the EU, it matters how products are made! Ambassadors just confirmed the Corporate sustainability due diligence directive (#CSDDD)! 💚 It fosters sustainable & responsible corporate behaviour, anchors human rights & environmental considerations for companies' operations.

[Post in a personal capacity] I was proud to start the day marching for YES for a Voice on the land of the Arakwal people of the Bundjalung nation. Everyone in our beautiful country is better off when those affected by laws and policies have a voice in shaping them.

Hearing directly from survivors is critical to understanding how a country is doing in tackling modern slavery. I was pleased to support engagements by @JTIP_State⁩ with people with varying lived experiences of modern slavery in New South Wales.

“The complicity & silence of bystanders - friends, relatives, & neighbours, not to mention officials of the law - feel like a profound betrayal… Often, survivors will feel the bitterness of these betrayals more deeply even than the direct harms inflicted by perpetrators.”

@GhazaviVD @smh Great piece @GhazaviVD. We should recognize that welfare is an investment in human development (h/t Amartya Sen). And that this is about realizing rights. Human rights describe the contours of the ‘floor’ on which capabilities & agency develop & humans flourish.

Catherine Holmes has given Australia an opportunity to disrupt punitive, stigmatising attitudes towards the poor. In this piece for @smh, I suggest how we can reimagine welfare and translate lessons from the Robodebt Royal Commission into transformative reform.
