Business and human Rights Toolkit - Updated 2024

Originally developed in 2021, this updated toolkit provides guidance on how to incorporate Business and
Human Rights Standards into EU international partnerships activities. It offers practical guidance and
supports efforts to promote human rights and environmental due diligence (HREDD) through global value
chains and aims to help colleagues apply the human rights-based approach (HRBA) methodology in EU-
funded interventions. This document complements the 2021 Commission Staff Working Document
‘Applying the Human Rights Based Approach to International Partnerships’ (EU HRBA Toolbox) and it is
the second paper in the Human Rights in Practice series from DG INTPA Unit G.1.
