    Japanese version of security and human rights challenges toolkit launched

    To commemorate the joint publication by the Geneva Centre for Security Sector Governance (DCAF) and the ICRC, with the support of the Swiss Embassy in Tokyo, a ceremony was held at the Swiss ambassador’s residence. Representatives from various Japanese companies, the diplomatic circle, universities, non-governmental organizations, think tanks and media participated in the event that marks Japan’s commitment to promoting responsible business practices among Japanese corporations operating abroad.
