About

Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office awarded a contract to University of Nottingham for the National Baseline Assessment (NBA) on the Implementation of the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights.

The contract provided technical assistance to assess the current level of implementation of the UNGPs across the UK by the UK government and UK businesses, focusing on three pillars: State Duty to Protect, Business Responsibility to Respect, and Access to Remedy.

The programme identified measures taken by the UK Government to support business adherence with international and regional human rights standards, as well as steps to ensure access to remedy for victims, including analysis of policy, legislation, and programming (including Overseas Development Assistance).

The NBA identified possible legal and policy gaps in current measures.

The contract value was AUD 139,000.
