Through a partnership between the Human Rights Center and the Business & Human Rights Resource Centre, this internship provides a practical experience focused on bringing global attention to company conduct affecting people and communities, with the aim of promoting respect for human rights. Working with the Resource Centre’s Global Team in New York City, the intern contributes to furthering the vision of a world in which companies respect and advance human rights, and communities and workers are empowered to secure their rights and gain accountability for abuse.
