Our mission
BHRMENA is an independent advisory practice working with companies, investors, governments and multilateral institutions across the Arab States on business and human rights.
Companies and institutions operating across the Arab States are increasingly expected to demonstrate stronger oversight of workforce practices, supplier relationships, and broader supply chain impacts. This reflects a combination of evolving regional expectations around wage protection, labour standards, and worker welfare, alongside growing scrutiny from sovereign-linked and international investors integrating ESG and human rights considerations into their due diligence processes.
At the same time, international counterparties are adapting to emerging supply chain and mandatory human rights due diligence frameworks in Europe and other jurisdictions, creating heightened expectations for transparency, traceability, and responsible business conduct across cross-border operations and value chains.
