Webinar — Decent Work in Global Supply Chains Phase II: Tackling Working Poverty

Overview

This webinar will be an opportunity to learn more about the proposed outputs of the second phase of the UN Global Compact Action Platform on Decent Work in Global Supply Chains and how to engage in the Action Platform.

Launched in 2020, this second phase focusing on Tackling Working Poverty will convene business, Global Compact Local Networks and key experts and partners to develop strategies to advance respect for labour and human rights and re-think supply chains by transforming them into engines of sustainable growth. Through this multi-stakeholder and multi-sectoral Action Platform, participants will explore one of the main root causes of decent work deficits, namely working poverty, and will develop best practice case studies and actions to reduce working poverty, by focusing on living wages, social protection benefits and how responsible purchasing practices can impact both.
