Gender-Transformative Remedies for Women Human Rights Defenders

Résumé

In its 2019 report to the Human Rights Council, the United Nations (UN) Working Group on business and human rights emphasized that 'gender-transformative' remedies can bring 'change to patriarchal norms and unequal power relations that underpin discrimination, gender-based violence and gender stereotyping'. This article aims to deepen our knowledge of such remediation for women human rights defenders who fight against corporate human rights abuses. Human rights remediation is highly fragmented. This has the advantage that remedies at one level can offer sources of learning for remedies at other levels. This article uses relevant communications that the UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights defenders sent to states and corporations jointly with other Special Procedures (including the UN Special Rapporteur on violence against women and girls, its causes and consequences and the UN Working Group on discrimination against women and girls in law and practice) between 2011 and 2020 as a source of learning.
