Norwegian Minister of International Development Nikolai Astrup believes that promoting human rights comes down to understanding and overcoming very practical challenges. In his talk, he emphasizes the symbiotic relationship between human rights and the business sector, and reminds businesses that they have a responsibility to solve the practical challenges of their communities. When human rights are acknowledged in economic development, businesses are more likely to grow and succeed.
