Workers’ Rights and Corporate Responsibilities Across Borders: Perspectives on Law and Social Justice

The International Law Society and the Center for Applied Human Rights at VLS host Janelle Diller of the International Labour Organization (ILO). Diller, a senior legal adviser at the ILO, an agency of the United Nations, led the ILO role in international negotiations that resulted in a compensation arrangement for the victims of the Rana Plaza factory collapse in Bangladesh. The collapse, in 2013, was the deadliest factory disaster in the history of the garment industry.
