Please plan to be in New York City on 2 February 2024 for our 2024 Conference where we can all come together for new findings and new conversations about three big topics: climate breakdown and global production, due diligence and lead firm liability, and identifying forced labor.
Like our June 2022 conference, all sessions will be plenaries with keynotes and panels with diverse perspectives—workers, employers, lead firms, policymakers, researchers and investors. Our proposed topics are below and we will share keynote speakers and discussants as they are confirmed.
Space is limited. The cost to join is USD 100. For questions or additional information, please contact globallaborinstitute@cornell.edu.
