The 15th UN Forum on Business and Human Rights 2026
The 15th United Nations Forum on Business and Human Rights, organised by the UN Working Group on Business and Human Rights and supported by the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), brings together representatives from governments, businesses, civil society, trade unions, international organisations, Indigenous Peoples, affected communities and academia. Under the theme “UNGPs at 15: Building on Gains, Confronting Gaps, Reimagining the Future,” the 2026 Forum marks the 15th anniversary of the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. Discussions examine corporate responsibility to respect human rights, human rights due diligence, labour rights, responsible supply chains, access to remedy, corporate accountability and the role of governments in preventing and addressing adverse human rights impacts linked to business activities. The Forum provides a global platform for reviewing progress and identifying practical approaches to strengthening implementation of the UN Guiding Principles.
