What are the major challenges for business when it comes to human rights in 2024?

“The poor are more vulnerable to uncertainty and everything is uncertain”

IHRB’s Salil Tripathi sits down with renowned human rights scholar Usha Ramanathan to explore the balance of rights and responsibilities for both states and business.

They discuss everything from data, surveillance and privacy, to climate change, agriculture - and even space. Usha offers a profound analysis of how businesses and states shape the lives of the vulnerable and shares her vision for a more equitable future, where human rights are not just recognised but respected.
