Right corporate wrongs

Public debate: Thursday 25th May, 7:30-9pm - London

Briefcases, top hats, the world and businessmen

Key figures from business, politics and international development will debate the key questions:

  • Can we rely on big business to do the right thing?
  • Do we need governments to curb corporate power and make companies act more responsibly?
  • How do we ensure multinationals contribute to sustainable development, trade justice and making poverty history?

Why now?

The Government is currently debating the Company Law Reform Bill.

We have a unique opportunity to tackle irresponsible behaviour by UK companies by changing the laws which govern how they operate.

Come and learn about the issues and find out how you can get more involved in this important campaign to stop UK companies profiting at the expense of people and the planet.

Where and when?

Franklin Wilkins Building, King's College Waterloo campus, London SE1 9NH
