E-learning on business and human rights for NHRIs
This E-learning is a free learning tool on business and human rights, designed as a companion resource to Business and Human Rights: A Guidebook for National Human Rights Institutions. An earlier version of the E-learning was developed by the Danish Institute for Human Rights, on behalf of the GANHRI Working Group on Business and Human Rights (formerly the ICC Working Group). The current version has been developed and updated as part of the EU funded EU.NHRI Project.
Course objectives
The objectives of the E-learning are to introduce learners to the field of business and human rights, and to consider how national human rights institutions can apply their Paris Principles mandate to business and human rights.
Target group
The E-learning has been developed with national human rights institutions as the primary target audience in mind. However, much of the learning material is also relevant for civil society organisations, government agencies, and other stakeholders. As such, the e-learning is suitable for a range of audiences wanting to familiarise themselves with business and human rights and the role of national human rights institutions.
Course overview
The course includes five core modules:
- Introduction to business and human rights
- National human rights institutions and business and human rights
- UN Guiding Principles pillar one - the State duty to protect
- UN Guiding Principles pillar two - the corporate responsibility to respect
- UN Guiding Principles pillar three - access to remedy
Each of these modulestakes around one hour to complete and contains introductory readings, presentations, videos, reflection exercises and quizzes.
Languages
The E-learning is available in Arabic, English, French, Spanish. An earlier version of the course is also available in Russian.
Independent learning and blended-learning
This E-learning is designed to run as an ‘independent’ learning course, meaning that students can simply self-enrol in the course and move through each module at their own pace, without a facilitator.
A modified version of the E-learning can also be taken as a ‘blended-learning’ course, combined with a three-day face-to-face workshop after completion of the E-learning, providing for a more comprehensive and interactive introduction to business and human rights. For more information about the blended learning programme, please contact Nora Gotzmann at: nog@humanrights.dk.
