Building Business, Human Rights and Climate Change Synergies in Southeast Asia: What the Philippines’ National Inquiry on Climate Change Could Mean for ASEAN

This research paper examines the relationship between business, human rights, and climate change within the ASEAN region, specifically analyzing the Philippines’ National Inquiry on Climate Change and its implications for regional governance and corporate responsibility.

• The Philippines’ National Inquiry on Climate Change is described as an innovative method for analyzing the synergies and interplay between climate change, human rights, and business activities.
• While governments are the main duty bearers for human rights, recent climate change litigation provides opportunities to examine the responsibilities of corporations regarding their role in anthropogenic climate change.
• Climate action, encompassing both adaptation and greenhouse gas mitigation, has only recently started to address the human rights implications associated with both taking action and failing to act to mitigate climate impacts.
