AIM-Progress Supplier Capability Building Programme, Thailand

17 Sep 2024 - 14 Jan 2025 Bangkok, Thailand

We are excited to announce the launch of AIM-Progress Supplier Capability Building Programme in Thailand, in collaboration with Quizrr and the International Organization for Migration (IOM).

This programme will run from September 2024 to March 2025. It aims to equip suppliers with essential knowledge and tools for implementing human rights due diligence (HRDD), understanding responsible recruitment and grievance management in Thailand.

This Supplier Capability Building Programme is kindly sponsored by Unilever, Nestle and Mars.

The training will include a blend of virtual and one in-person event (14 November 2024 in Sukosol Hotel Bangkok, Thailand), featuring guest speakers from government, the private sector and civil society and brand-supplier networking opportunities. All training sessions and materials will be in Thai to ensure clarity and engagement.

What will suppliers get out of it?

  • Deeper understanding on the concept, business case, and implementation of HRDD
  • Increased awareness of forced labor trade bans and its impacts on suppliers
  • Hear practical examples, best practices and lessons learned on HRDD, grievance and responsible recruitment to inspire learning and action

Who should participate in the training program?

  • Human Resources and Recruitment: HR managers, recruiters, and labor rights advocates focused on improving recruitment practices and ensuring ethical labor sourcing.
  • Supply Chain Management: Supply chain managers, procurement officers, and supplier relationship managers concerned with managing supply chain risks and promoting responsible sourcing. 
  • Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability: CSR managers, compliance and/or health and safety officers, and sustainability practitioners responsible for integrating HRDD into organizational practices.
