Head of Human Rights and Environmental Disputes, Ingrid Gubbay from Hausfeld London, joined the expert panel during BIICL’s second episode of their ‘Human Rights Due Diligence for Climate Change Impacts’ webinar series to examine intended effects of climate change litigation on corporate due diligence regulation.
