Internationally Binding Legislation and Litigation
for the Enforcement of Labour Rights.

The seminar was organised by the Clean Clothes Campaign and IRENE. Germany, 26 - 28 June 2002.

This international seminar brought together lawyers, NGOs and Trade Unions to explore the legal possibilities for holding multinational corporations (MNCs) responsible for labour rights in their operations outside their home countries.

Presentations and discussions focussed on tools that can be used to achieve compliance on basic labour standards, on the usefulness of litigation, on the value of lobbying in relation to the development and enforcement of binding legislation that guarantees workers' rights, and on the role of campaigning to support strategies.
