Our Director of Extended Supply Chain Programs Rachel Phillips Rigby attended the Engaging Business Forum in Atlanta, speaking on the panel "Charting the Unseen: Sub-tier Human Rights Due Diligence." For those who couldn't make it, here are Rachel's key takeaways 💡: 🔹 KNOW: As a company sourcing agricultural raw materials in global supply chains, you can’t address human rights risks and harms if you don’t understand them. Effective due diligence requires in-depth knowledge of salient issues and their root causes in your supply chains. This understanding forms the foundation for meaningful action plans. 🔹 SUPPORT: Human rights due diligence is challenging, especially in the first mile of agricultural supply chains. Suppliers at this level need investment in training and capacity building; Time to implement strong management systems and risk controls. Stick with suppliers who are committed to that journey. 🔹 INCENTIVIZE: Companies should clearly communicate human rights expectations; Set specific KPIs and targets for suppliers; Reward strong human rights performance through procurement practices.
