Assessment of National Action Plan - Switzerland

In December 2016, the Swiss government launched a National Action Plan (NAP) on business and human rights. In response, the International Corporate Accountability Roundtable (ICAR) and the European Coalition for Corporate Justice (ECCJ) conducted a structured assessment of the Swiss NAP, using the NAPs Checklist developed and published by ICAR and the Danish Institute for Human Rights (DIHR). The NAPs Checklist lays out a set of twenty-five criteria that address both the content of NAPs and the process for developing them.
