UN GCD Supply Chain Dialogue - Labour Migration in the Middle East

ANMELDEN / REGISTER

The UN GCD Supply Chain Dialogue 2026 brings together companies, suppliers, and rightsholder representatives to explore how human rights due diligence (HRDD) can become more effective, collaborative, and impactful.

Building on approaches that move beyond compliance-driven tools such as audits and self-assessment questionnaires, this session focuses on labour migration in the Middle East. Participants will discuss risks related to recruitment practices, migrant worker protection, and access to remedy, while exploring how trust, transparency, and rightsholder engagement can improve HRDD in complex migration contexts.

Target group: Professionals from UN GCD member companies, especially in sustainability, procurement, or compliance roles but also anyone involved in shaping or implementing due diligence processes and interested in learning from existing corporate practice, reflecting on common challenges, and helping shape what comes next.
