Today on the Take on Board podcast, I'm speaking with Fiona David about understanding modern slavery risk.&nbsp;Fiona is on the boards of ACCESS-NRI, Australia's climate simulator, and the Coolaroo Foundation, a philanthropic organisation, and an alternate director on the Forrest Research Foundation for Nicola Forrest. Lawyer, human rights expert, and founder of Fair Futures, Fiona, is leading the charge in helping organisations tackle issues such as modern slavery in their supply chains.Having led the creation of the landmark Global Slavery Index, she is an expert in helping companies embed ethical and sustainable practices, proving that commercial success doesn’t need to come at the expense of human rights or the environment.Links and Resources<a href="www.linkedin.com/in/fiona-david" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Fiona David on LinkedIn</a><a href=" www.fairfutures.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Fiona on the Fair Futures website</a>Recent articles that give practical insights and tips for Board Directors on understanding modern slavery risk:<a href="https://digitalmag.theceomagazine.com/why-human-rights-need-to-sit-at-the-board-level/?r=global" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Why Human Rights Need to Sit at the Board Level</a><a href="https://www.aicd.com.au/regulatory-compliance/government-legislations/modern-slavery-law/embedding-human-rights-due-diligence-into-your-business-strategy.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">How to embed modern slavery human rights due diligence into strategy</a>The <a href="https://www.walkfree.org/global-slavery-index/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Walk Free Global Slavery Index provides</a> valuable country-by-country information that Board Directors will typically see referenced in their organisations' MSA statements.&nbsp;Upcoming TOB Events<a href="https://helgasvendsen.com.au/community/events/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">All events</a>You might want to:Join the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/TakeOnBoard/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Take on Board Facebook community</a>Join the <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/groups/13955373/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Take on Board LinkedIn community</a><a href="https://mobile.twitter.com/takeonboard" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Follow along on Twitter</a><a href="https://helgasvendsen.com.au/work-with-me/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Work with me</a><a href="https://helgasvendsen.com.au/work-with-me/governance/kickstarter/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Join the Take on Board: Kickstarter group program</a><a href="https://helgasvendsen.com.au/work-with-me/governance/accelerator/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Join the Take on Board: Accelerator group program</a><a href="https://helgasvendsen.com.au/about/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Find out more about me</a><a href="https://helgasvendsen.com.au/contact" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Contact me</a><hr> Hosted on Acast.
