The EU imports large amounts of products from the Global South each year. Unfortunately, their production is often associated with child labor, human rights violations, and ecological damage. To combat these issues and to hold companies accountable for the products they sell, the EU has introduced the Corporate Sustainability Directive or CSDDD.

However, the CSDDD has found itself in the crosshairs of ongoing turbulence within and outside of the EU.


To help us understand the CSDDD’ objectives, its potential impacts on companies and local stakeholders, and how it has been affected by turbulence, Maria-Therese Gustaffson and Johanna Coenen join us for this episode.
