🌎 El pasado domingo, en el foro de sociedad civil de la 16a plenaria de #EuroLat en Lima, se presentó nuestro informe sobre el Estado del Espacio Cívico en Latinoamérica.
Agradecemos mucho a @anam-eurodeputada.bsky.social y al @europarl.europa.eu por propiciar este espacio de diálogo birregional.
📢 Hoy publicamos nuestro informe sobre El Estado del espacio cívico en América Latina. 🌎
El informe incluye capítulos sobre países específicos y contiene recomendaciones clave para la UE que presentaremos hoy a las 15:00 en una sesión de DCAM: lnkd.in/e2XrnX9X

Multinationales : en finir avec l’impunité ? Un traité régulant les activités des entreprises transnationales en matière de droits humains est en cours de négociation au sein de l’ONU. Alors que se multiplient les mesures nationales imposant un « devoir de vigilance » contraignant aux entreprises, est discutée une directive européenne allant dans le même sens. Autant de signes de la volonté des États, sous la pression des mouvements sociaux, de (re)prendre quelque peu le contrôle. La remise en question du pouvoir de l’acteur économique le plus puissant de la globalisation néolibérale marque-t-elle une nouvelle phase de l’ordre mondial ? Au cours de ces dernières années, à mesure que l’impact des grandes entreprises au Sud se faisait plus visible, leurs violations des droits humains, sociaux, économiques et environnementaux, ainsi que leur impunité, plus évidentes, leur image auprès du public du Nord s’est largement détériorée, et leur autorégulation est apparue pour ce qu’elle est : un mythe. Mais les multinationales n’en continuent pas moins de bénéficier de politiques publiques accommodantes, voire complices, et d’une architecture économique mondiale à leur avantage, sinon à leur service, tandis que les organisations sociales, plus encore dans les pays du Sud, demeurent sans véritable accès à la justice. Au-delà du contrôle des acteurs économiques, l’enjeu est la priorité des droits humains sur le commerce, et le renversement de l’asymétrie des pouvoirs.

Desde la Red EU-LAT, instamos a la UE a rechazar esta decisión y urgir al Gobierno a devolver el dictamen a la Comisión de Relaciones Exteriores para una evaluación más profunda y transparente

Una parte del sistema judicial en #Guatemala ha dejado de impartir justicia y centra sus esfuerzos en perseguir a operadoras de justicia, periodistas y defensoras de derechos humanos.
Desde la #UE exigimos el máximo respeto al Estado de Derecho y a los derechos fundamentales.
Today 360+ civil society & trade unions worldwide are urging @europarl.europa.eu & @consilium.europa.eu to say:
📢No to weakening the #CSDDD
📢No to corporate impunity
📢 #NoToOmnibus
If #Omnibus adopted, it would turn corporate due diligence into an empty shell

Can't agree more with Olof Skoog in his final newsletter as EUSR Human Rights.
In other words, EU & MS officials who fail to speak truth but accommodate with repressive leaders with hope of short time gains undermine EU's interests, leverage & credibility as global actor.

💡En este #DíaDeLasONG, reiteramos la urgencia de proteger el espacio cívico.
Just a hunch — this isn't going to go down well in Parliament.
4 of 5 companies could be exempt from EU corporate sustainability reporting as part of Brussels’ anti-red tape drive

We join the call on the EU to protect its commitment to human rights and environmental protection. We believe that a just and sustainable future requires strengthening, not weakening, our shared commitments.
The 🇪🇺 to stand for people and planet!

USAID's closure is leaving local NGOs without crucial funding, setting a worrying precedent. In Europe, several countries are already cutting their foreign aid and MFF negotiations could further impact cooperation.
Now more than even, the EU must step up and lead with real values-based alternatives.
A motley but energetic crew of business interests, centrist political leaders and far-right crusaders all want to reset the EU’s Green Deal.
Yet they are divided on the remedies — and even on whether they want to work together.

"The EU will not benefit from backtracking on its sustainability standards [like the #CSDDD] but rather set itself up for failure, to the detriment of its institutional stability & human rights & the environment."

#NoToOmnibus
We refuse to let corporate interests rewrite the law without us. Victims of corporate abuse, workers & communities are not consulted on #Omnibus— corporations are
@ec.europa.eu must decide: does it stand w/people & planet or w/corporate interest?
📰 corporatejustice.org/news/press-r...
So who did the European Commission invite to today's Omnibus consultation? #CSDDD #CSRD #Taxonomy
@somoamsterdam.bsky.social had a look at the 30 companies on the guest list. Here's what we found: 🧵
@vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu @vdombrovskis.bsky.social
Not without us
We are in front of the @ec.europa.eu bringing the voices of victims of corporate abuse that EU policymakers do not want in their consultation meeting today.
NGOs & trade unions have a common message: #NoToOmnibus
The EU should serve people and the planet, not corporate interests.
📢Once again, 150+ CSOs say #NoToOmnibus.
The European Commission is risking the dismantling of the #CSDDD and other sustainability files by reopening agreed laws without participatory consultation⁉️
Rolling back is more than ever NOT AN OPTION.
👉Read the joint statement: urlr.me/JV4g8u
TOMORROW PROTEST #NoToOmnibus
Join us to call out corporate influence on #Omnibus process.
We DO NOT accept that corporations & banks are invited whilst victims of corporate abuse, workers & frontline communities are left in the cold.
Loud & clear: “Not without us”

Loud & clear:
📣The EU's Competitiveness Compass is a reward to corporate interests avoiding responsibility
Cutting #HumanRights & environmental protections under the guise of ‘simplification’ fuels impunity & leads the way for the next Rana Plaza or Brumadinho tragedy
No backtracking. #NoToOmnibus
