Human Rights, Corporate Responsibility and Sustainable Development The research project Human Rights, Corporate Responsibility and Sustainable Development is funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development and conducted by the Institute for Development and Peace (INEF). It aims at supporting companies in realizing their human rights responsibility and in linking their actions more closely to processes of sustainable development. The first project phase addressed the interdependent levels of international law, voluntary corporate responsibility for human rights, and state regulation, with their different potentials and functions for the development and implementation of norms. The current second project phase focuses on structural contexts in which corporate responsibility is embedded. These can be conceptualized as transnational, international and regional/national/local spaces which are interdependent. Based on this integrated research approach, we develop policy recommendations.
