The OECD is working with government and non-government stakeholders in Australia, Japan, New Zealand, the Republic of Korea (OECD Members) and Singapore to promote green, digital and resilient supply chains throughout Asia. The activities are focused on industry capacity to implement OECD standards on responsible business conduct and have a particular focus on businesses with operations and supply chains in Southeast Asia. The work is funded by the European Union.
Responsible Business Conduct for Green, Digital and Resilient Supply Chains in Asia
The OECD is collaborating with governments and businesses operating in Asia to raise awareness across the region of the principles set out in the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises on Responsible Business Conduct.
About the programme
How it works
Responsible business conduct is an important means for governments to build sustainable, inclusive, and resilient economies. Effective policies that enable and incentivise responsible business conduct can help governments enhance competitiveness and align business activities with social and environmental goals. The OECD conducts analysis and convenes dialogue between policymakers to foster policy cooperation in Asia on topics related to responsible business conduct.
