About the B-Tech Project
The B-Tech Project provides authoritative guidance and resources for implementing the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human rights (UNGPs) in the technology space. In 2019, UN Human Rights launched the project after consultations with civil society, business, States, and other experts about the scope of the B-Tech Project. Since then, the project has been engaging extensively with a wide range of actors including states, companies, civil society actors and investors on how to embed the UNGPs into the regulation and operation of technologies companies.
The project is providing technical guidance and specific resources to companies States, and other key drivers of responsible business conduct, including investors.
