International Centre for Human Rights and Democratic Development
The International Centre for Human Rights and Democratic Development (Rights & Democracy), had been created to be a non-partisan, independent Canadian institution, established by an act of the Canadian parliament in 1988 to "encourage and support the universal values of human rights and the promotion of democratic institutions and practices around the world."〔()〕 It received around C$11m per year in funding from the Canadian government.〔
R&D worked with individuals, organizations and governments in Canada and abroad to promote the human and democratic rights defined in the United Nations' International Bill of Human Rights. One of its most enduring efforts has been to protect citizens from rights abuses perpetrated by corporations. To this end, it developed a series of tools for Human Rights Impact Assessment that can be carried out by civil society groups.
