Promoting Responsible Supply Chains in Asia
Investing in People, Planet and Prosperity
The Responsible Supply Chains in Asia programme (2018-2022), implemented together with the International Labour Organisation and the European Union, focused on helping companies and governments across global supply chains and taking action to create an enabling environment and respect for human and labour rights.
The programme was carried out in partnership with Japan, an OECD member and the only country under the Programme that adhered to the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises and set up a National Contact Point for RBC, and five partner economies, namely China (OECD Key Partner), Thailand, Viet Nam, Philippines, and Myanmar.
