Non-State actors and the duty to cooperate (field study)

OHCHR

The study will focus on the duty to cooperate in overcoming obstacles to the implementation of the right to development on the ground. It will consider the duty to cooperate as a broader partnership with non-State actors, and will include an on-site investigation of a situation involving: a local community whose enjoyment of rights had been affected not only by the State, but also by external actors; a private non-State actor (a foreign company or non-governmental organization); an intergovernmental organization, and the home State of the non-State actor.
