IHRB Review: highlights from 2025
31 March 2026
2025 was marked by ongoing political, environmental and technological turmoil, adding new depths of complexity for businesses to contend with – and greater human rights risks.
Our work continued, publishing new research on emerging challenges, convening diverse voices and creating shared solutions in response to those challenges, designing tools to help advance rights in everyday business, and training the next generation of leaders to embed human rights in corporate practice.
We've captured some of our key highlights and activities in our 2025 Review.
At a time when division often dominates, we need collaboration, respectful dialogue, diplomacy and collective action more than ever. One of IHRB’s enduring strengths is its ability to bring together diverse voices to tackle complex challenges and find common ground.
