A recent study carried out for the European Commission (January 2020) warned of the ineffectiveness of voluntary measures that companies take to identify, prevent, mitigate and account for adverse corporate impacts on human rights and the environment. [1] This study by the European Commission supports the position that AEFJN and the civil society have denounced on many occasions: European companies have a double standard when doing business in Europe and in developing countries. While in Europe the standards of respect for human rights and the environment are very high, when the same companies operate in developing countries, they put aside the European standards and act with total impunity.
