Webinar two - Social Dialogue and Human Rights Due Diligence
Internationally principles call on enterprises to identify, prevent, mitigate and account for how they address adverse impacts on internationally recognised human rights. Social dialogue and sound industrial relations play a central role in enabling implementation of due diligence as the engagement with workers’ representatives and trade unions helps enterprises identify and address potential adverse impacts.

Webinar three - Social Dialogue and Living Wagesㅤㅤ
Internationally recognised as human rights, living wages allow workers to afford a decent standard of living. However, their practical implementation often presents challenges, with stakeholders grappling with varying concerns. Social dialogue emerges as a pivotal solution for reconciling these tensions and establishing a win-win scenario that serves the interests of both workers and employers.

Webinar four - Social Dialogue and the Just Transition
The world of work will face major challenges in the transition towards environmentally sustainable economies and societies. Within this framework, there is a growing demand for social dialogue to assume a central role in shaping these transitions as it can generate consensus among governments, workers, and employers, while also ensuring the active participation of those who are most affected in the decision-making processes.
