In April 2016 the Government of Canada takes over as chair of the Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights (VPs). NGOs are calling on the Canadian government to seize the opportunity to correct practices that undermine the prospects of impoverished communities overseas to seek remedy for corporate abuse. RAID and MiningWatch Canada warn that the UN Guiding Principles and the VPs allow companies to privatise and control the implementation of human rights, and that this is most apparent in the implementation of “operational level” grievance mechanisms. RAID’s new report Principles without justice: the corporate takeover of human rights (here) released in advance of 2016 plenary meeting of the Voluntary Principles Iniativie in Colombia examines the deficiencies with the VPs and Guiding Principles and further details recommendations for reform
