Theme 3: Grievance Mechanisms
The Guiding Principles highlight the importance of creating grievance mechanisms. It requires an immense
amount of time and costs for companies to create a grievance system that all the stakeholders including local
communities can access to. Though such a system was created, would it mitigate or prevent adverse impacts on
workers and communities caused by company operations at an early stage? This session focuses on exploring
how to design effective grievance mechanisms that cover the region of Asia, Myanmar, Philippines, China andViet Nam.
