May 16: How Global Supply Chains Can Support Sustainability Through Contract Terms
As consumers and investors seek sustainability and corporate social responsibility from the brands they support, multinational companies are reviewing their supply chains to address these concerns.
Professor Steph Tai will talk about their experience and research into developing sustainable contract terms for global supply chains, an approach modelled on the American Bar Association project on developing human rights protection terms for global supply chain contracts. The talk will include a discussion about the desirability of such terms from consumers, the process of negotiating such terms from international suppliers, examples of the terms, and conclude with discussing opportunities for the future.
