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

The document discusses the relationship between corporate responsibility, human rights, and climate change, specifically focusing on how the Philippines' National Inquiry on Climate Change provides a model for understanding these synergies within the ASEAN context.

• Climate action, encompassing both greenhouse gas mitigation and adaptation, has only recently started to account for the human rights implications associated with both taking action and failing to act against climate impacts.
• While governments are the primary entities responsible for protecting human rights, recent climate change litigation provides a way to examine the responsibilities of corporations regarding their role in human-caused climate change.
• The National Inquiry on Climate Change in the Philippines is described as an innovative method for analyzing the synergies and interplay between business, human rights, and climate change.
