Advisory Council
Effective Oct 1, 2020, the members and duties of the former Steering Committee and former Advisory Committee have merged, and been reconstituted into one body, now known as the Advisory Council.
The Advisory Council is comprised of investors, civil society partners, and other stakeholders with expertise in business and human rights and corporate engagement. The Advisory Council will also include the senior staff member who oversees the human rights work at the Interfaith Center on Corporate Responsibility. The Advisory Council members will serve two-year, renewable terms.
