November 2022: Joint Statement CSDDD must be strengthened to ensure tech sector accountability

The Investor Alliance, along with over 70 civil society allies, signed a joint statement for the strengthening of the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) to ensure tech sector accountability, which was sent to the EU Council and EU Parliament policymakers. 

The statement calls for the tech sector to be included as a high-impact subject by lowering the size and turnover thresholds in the framework. The statement also calls for the CSDDD regulations to cover risks and harms across the full value chain in order to address technology-related abuse, which often occurs in technology companies' downstream value chains.
