South African human rights and business tool launched
The South African version of the Human Rights Compliance Assessment (HRCA) was launched on March 18 and 19 in Sandton, South Africa.
This self-assessment tool assists companies in South Africa in translating human rights into practice. The HRCA is therefore called Masizibheke, 'Let's look at ourselves.' The tool has been developed jointly by Aim for human rights, the Danish Institute for Human Rights, local organisations and companies. The South African counterparts have been united in the Human Rights and Business Project SA, with the African Institute for Corporate Citizenship (AICC) as focal point.
Masizibheke was presented during a national stakeholder conference on human rights and business. The conference has been organised by the National Human Rights Commission and AICC. For more information concerning the conference please see
