FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Can you bring a case before an international body?
Some procedures are open to individuals once local remedies are used up. We assess whether one applies and what it involves.
Does this area overlap with asylum?
It can. Where a person fears harm in their home country, immigration protection may also be available.
Do businesses have human rights obligations?
Increasingly, through law and through customer and investor expectations. We help companies put suitable policies in place.
