Please join us for our next free webinar on the topic of "
Business and Human Rights for Big Tech: What Works?" hosted by the University of Bath's
Centre for Business, Organisations and Society and the
Geneva Center for Business and Human Rights. At a time when a spotlight is firmly placed on the (ir)responsibilities of social media companies, platform organisations, search engines, apps and websites, we will reflect on themes of responsibility, ethics and democracy in the digital age.
When: 18 May 2022, 2.00pm - 3.30pm BST (GMT +01:00)
Featuring a stellar line up of speakers -
Paul Barrett (New York University School of Law),
Kirsten Martin (Mendoza College of Business, University of Notre Dame) and
Glen Whelan (UQAM School of Management, Université du Québec à Montréal), our panel discussion will cover issues such as:
- What does respecting human rights mean for information and technology companies?
- What role do they play in democracies and how can they deal with non-democratic regimes?
- And, given recent events, what is their role during conflict and war?
