Draft Principles – Consultation Results
1. Executive Summary
The Children’s Rights and Business Principles Initiative (‘CRBPI’) led by UNICEF, the UN Global Compact and Save the Children has formulated a set of draft Principles (the ‘Principles’) aimed at respecting and supporting children’s rights while advancing business and promoting a sustainable development agenda. During the period 6 May 2011 to 15 July 2011, the draft Principles were open for consultation to various stakeholder groups (see Section 1.2). This report summarizes the key comments and insights derived from the feedback received during this consultation process.
2. Methodology
The consultation process comprised several key modes of engagement and feedback. The various methods of providing feedback included online (via Zoomerang), online (via Word Questionnaire), in-country consultations, an Expert Reference Group and an Internal Reference Group. Just under 200 participated in the Online Questionnaires while over 400 participated in consultation meetings across several cities across the world including Beijing, Belgrade, Buenos Aires, Copenhagen, Dubai, Geneva, Istanbul, London, Nairobi, New Delhi, and Shanghai. In addition, outreach efforts through the partner organizations and the Business and Human Rights Resource Center children’s rights portal have reached thousands more with the draft Principles. Consultations with children were conducted by Save the Children. These results are summarized in a separate document. Additionally, several thousand people were reached in the Initiative’s efforts to build awareness of the Principles in advance of their official launch.
There were a total of 218 Respondents who provided written feedback. Of these, 168 (77%) provided feedback through a formal Online Questionnaire (‘Group 1’). These stakeholders came from several different sectors including business and the private sector (41%), civil society/academia/non-governmental organizations/trade unions (40%), United Nations (2%), government (3%), and other stakeholders (14%). In addition, a small number provided input via email without completing the questionnaire.

The remaining 50 respondents (23%) (‘Group 2’) provided feedback via In-country Consultations, as members of the Expert Reference Group (‘ERG’), and as members of an Internal Reference Group (‘IRG’). Similarly, these Respondents came from business and the private sector, civil society, academia, non-governmental organizations, trade unions, United Nations, and government. A full list of the individuals and organizations that participated is attached in Annexure 1.
Data was collected via a different method from the two groups of Respondents. While the Online Questionnaire sought to solicit data that could be represented statistically, the data obtained from the Group Consultations (In-Country, IRG, ERG) consists largely of free-form comments relating to the text of the Principles themselves. As such, Sections 3.4 to 3.12 of this report represent data predominantly from the Group Consultations (23% of Respondents), while Sections 3.1-3.3 and 3.13-3.17 represent data derived from the Online Questionnaire (77% of Respondents). Each of the sections below specifies from which group(s) the feedback derives.
Please note that each section also lists ‘Key Contributors’ and ‘Key Sectors’ providing the relevant feedback. ‘Key Contributors’ were listed based on both industry profile and the quantity of feedback provided. ‘Key Sectors’ are those sectors from which the majority of Respondents originated for that particular element of feedback.

3. Summary of Feedback
Feedback from Respondents is summarized below according to key thematic areas as well as comments specific to the Principles themselves. Each area includes a table illustrating the frequency at which such comments were made, by which key contributors, and across what sectors. Respondents were also asked to share one or more examples of a policy, practice or initiative that their organization is involved in relevant to the Principles and the topic of business and children. As such, case studies are also illustrated where Respondents have provided examples of the implementation of a Principle.
3.1Scope
Online respondents were asked to comment on the scope of the Principles and whether they believed that all necessary topics and pertinent themes were included. At a high level, 63% agreed with the scope of the Principles, 10% did not and 27% did not respond (see chart below).
Figure 2: Scope of Principles
Agree63%
Don't Agree10%
No Response27%
Overall there were several key themes that emerged from the comments and feedback with respect to the Scope of the Principles, including, beginning with those most frequently mentioned:
Integration with existing Framework - Make it clear this is not a stand alone initiative and clarify their scope and ensure consistency with other existing Conventions, initiatives, frameworks and Principles such as:
o UN Global Compacto ILO Conventionso OECD Guidelines
August 2011 Page 5 of 22
Draft Principles – Consultation Results
o Convention on the Rights of the Childo UN Protect-Respect-Remedy Framework and UN Guiding
Principles on Business and Human Rightso Millennium Development Goals
Scope of Rights - Broaden their scope to extend more strongly to:o Cultural rights, particularly for indigenous childreno Right to education o Right to lando Right to food, nutrition
Additional Grounds of Vulnerability - Provide specific protections to those children most vulnerable such as :
o Ethnic, cultural or religious minoritieso Indigenous peopleso Children with disabilities
Length - Make the Principles shorter and more succinct to encourage readership.
Nature of Responsibility – Make it clear whether the Principles align to the ‘corporate responsibility to respect’ under the UN Protect-Respect-Remedy Framework or extend beyond this to a duty to the commitment to support/promote;
Methodology and terminology – strive for consistency with the UN Framework;
Strength of Responsibility - Some Respondents believed that the Principles were currently too broad and lacking in specificity and that the language should be made stronger and more mandatory in nature. Some believed that the draft Principles were ambitious in scope and expectation, which may make it difficult for some companies to sign on to;
Definitions - Distinguish between:o Working children (who may still be receiving an education);o Child laborers (who are working full time at the expense of an
education); ando Children of stateless parents (who as a result may not have access
to education and whose parents are unable to work legally); Training – Include commitments to train children as future active citizens
who know their rights, their personal history, and that of their surroundings as a means to solidify their identity.
Products & Services –Refer to the fact that products or services of a given company may have a deliberate impact on children s rights to survival or development and ensure that businesses refrain from engaging in marketing and advertising that promotes the use of products that place children at risk.
August 2011 Page 6 of 22
Draft Principles – Consultation Results
Suppliers/Indirect Business Partners – ensure the Principles extend to ensuring compliance for these stakeholders also;
Industry Focus – Address different industries, such as agriculture and extractive industries as specific case studies;
Business Size – On the one hand, some Respondents were eager for it to be made more clear that the Principles apply equally to small, medium and large size business enterprises. By contrast, other Respondents, particularly from the private sector, believed that there is a need to distinguish between small, medium and large businesses in terms of their capacity to implement the Principles and the speed at which they might do so.
Due Diligence – Include guidance on due diligence (policy, impact assessment, implementation / management, performance tracking & reporting) in the field of children’s rights;
Monitoring – The Principles should ask companies to commit to actively monitoring their operations and activities for risks to children including child labor, abuse etc and to providing a public commitment to act in cases where they see it. Also training and awareness for staff to spot these issues in the workplace is important too.
Remedy – Include steps a company can take when discovering an infringement of the Principles;
Enforcement – Include incentives and/or sanctions for failure to comply; Periodic Review - Include a provision with respect to periodic review of
the Principles themselves.
3.2Audience / Subject of the Principles
Respondents were asked to comment on the fact that the Principles are currently addressed to a business audience and were asked whether they should remain this way or be broadened to address other types of organizations (e.g. governments, civil society, etc). At a high level, 27% of Respondents believed that the draft Principles should remain addressed to business, 69% believed that they should be expanded to address organizations more generally, and 4% did not respond (see chart below).

Figure 3: Principles' Target Audience
Business27%
Other Organizations
69%
No Response4%
The proportion of private and public sector Respondents in each of these two response pools was fairly even. Of those Respondents who believed that the Principles should stay addressed to businesses, 17 were from the private sector and 18 from the public sector. Similarly, of those Respondents who felt that the Principles should be broadened to include other organizations 51 were from the private sector and 47 were from civil society/NGOs/academia/trade unions.
Several key additional comments emerged from Respondents on this issue. First, the primary concerns of those Respondents who believed that the Principles should remain addressed to business were that addressing them to a broader audience may:
Decrease accountability (9); Dilute the effect of the Principles (9); and Diminish their efficacy and relevance because they could no longer
be tailored solely to the concerns of the private sector (11).
Second, the primary concerns of those Respondents who felt that the Principles should be addressed to organizations more broadly were:
The Principles and the responsibilities and commitments that they set out are universally applicable across all sectors (24); and
Every sector needs to uphold child rights and support businesses in implementing the principles (31).

Draft Principles – Consultation Results
3.3Inclusions/Exclusions
Respondents were asked to comment on whether they believed the Principles should distinguish more clearly between what things businesses ‘must do’ and what things are merely ‘nice to have’. At a high level, 54% of Respondents answered ‘Yes’, 37% answered ‘No’, and 9% did not respond (see chart below).
Figure 4: Inclusions / Exclusions
Yes54%
No 37%
No Response9%
The key comments and recommendations provided by those Respondents who answered ‘Yes’ included the need to:
Organize and lay out the principles according to levels of responsibility – whether a business must respect, support or fulfill a right.
Clarify which principles must be followed if a business does not want to be in violation of national, regional or international law (as opposed to those which are in line with or forward non-legally binding human rights principles).
Identify minimum levels of responsibility (fundamental principles) vs. suggested levels of responsibility (voluntary principles).
Where Respondents answered ‘No’, they commented that the Principles should serve more as a best practice guide and catalyst for knowledge sharing rather than a strict mandatory framework and that adopting this less formalized approach will ensure more businesses sign on.

Draft Principles – Consultation Results
3.4Language
A large number of Respondents commented on the Language used in the text of the Principles. Recommendations regarding the language and text of the Principles focused around four major issues:
1. The use of strong and concise language; 2. Consistency with other international conventions and existing
frameworks and definitions; 3. The use of business-accessible language and structure; and4. Translation and cultural applicability.
Some respondents (17) noted that strong, concise language must be used in presenting the Principles and making recommendations, so as to encourage businesses to take child rights seriously and remedy existing problems in the workplace. Of these 17 Respondents, 5 were from civil society/academia/non-governmental organizations/trade unions and 3 were from the private sector. The remaining 9 Respondents were from the IRG, ERG, or in-country consultations.
Other Respondents (15) discussed the importance of basing the Principles off existing frameworks, including the Guiding Principles and the UN ‘Protect, Respect, Remedy’ Framework, as well as other UN Conventions. In addition, many of these respondents noted that universal definitions—including those already defined by existing frameworks and the international community—should be explained and used in the Principles. Of these Respondents, 8 were from the private sector, 2 from the public sector, including government, and 3 from in-country consultations.
Respondents cited key words and concepts that should be defined or clarified, including: “child,” “child labor,” “decent work opportunities,” “emergency
situations,” “supportive measures,” “fair taxation,” “excessively low margins,” and “supervision,” among others.
“value chain” - this was seen as problematic in so far as its inconsistency with the Guiding Principles which use the terms ‘business operations or activities’ and ‘supply chain’.
Six respondents, mostly from the in-country consultations, recommended that the Principles use clear, business-friendly language and structure so that they can be easily understood and absorbed by the private sector.
Five respondents, including in-country consultations in Beijing, Shanghai, Dubai, and Buenos Aires, recommended that special attention be paid to
August 2011 Page 10 of 22
Draft Principles – Consultation Results
translation and cultural applicability. They were especially concerned that certain key concepts should be translatable from English to other languages so that they can be universally understood.
3.5Preamble
A common theme among respondents was the need to better situate the Principles within existing framework, making reference to CEDAW, the UN ’Protect, Respect, Remedy’ framework, etc. Additionally, it was mentioned that a clear linkage must be made between the Principles and the UN Global Compact. Thus, the preamble must clearly explain the scope and offer a clarification of the function of the Principles. More specifically, careful definitions of what is meant by a ‘child’ and ‘children’s rights’ should be included. Finally, some businesses worried that the preamble is not directed enough to them.
3.6Principle 1
The key themes that emerged from Respondents with respect to Principle 1 included the need for:
A clear definition of ‘stakeholders’ and who they represent (a recurring comment) (5);
Greater alignment with the UN ‘Protect, Respect, Remedy’ Framework (3);
Other points or suggestions that were mentioned, but not recurring included the need for:
More introductory statements for businesses to whom this is new concept;
A statement reiterating the importance of maintaining open dialogue with consumers and community, working with other stakeholders and drawing on their expertise;
A commitment to install participation mechanisms for children to be consulted in management decisions affecting them (child participation);
A key requirement that the business incorporate the Principles into their company policies;
A mandatory vs. voluntary obligation on businesses; An additional clause addressing a remedy for abuses suffered
(grievance mechanisms); Clarification of how to track progress;

Please refer to the Source Data Matrix for the comments and proposed changes with respect to the text of the Principle itself.
3.7Principle 2
The primary theme that emerged from comments with respect to Principle 2 concerned child labor and a minimum working age. Concerns were raised about the national working age being below 18 in many countries. Use of the ILO Convention on Minimum Age was suggested (6 Respondents). Similarly, the need to be very clear in defining child labor with reference to international standards was raised. 2 Respondents specifically thought that forced labor needed to be mentioned.
Other comments that arose with less frequency included:
Whether there were certain work opportunities there were/weren’t appropriate for the minimum work age;
Concern that the Principle could be used to justify child labor, and that the language needed to be worded more carefully to guard against this;
The need to include samples of verifications mechanisms to test and measure compliance;
There may be too much detail in regards to how the Principle would be implemented rather than the underlying values it seeks to instill; and
It may not be realistic for workers who work with youth to have children’s rights training.
For specific proposals with respect to the text of the Principle itself, please refer to the Source Data Matrix.
3.8Principle 3
The primary concerns raised by Respondents with respect to Principle 3 included:o How and when a business can be sure that their products and services to
which children may be exposed are safe and that testing and researching is conducted in the best interests of the child?;
o How to determine whether a product is essential to a child’s survival; ando The question of the affordability of essential services, especially to those
who are most vulnerable;
For specific proposals with respect to the text of the Principle itself, please refer to the Source Data Matrix.

3.9Principle 4
In relation to Principle 4, 15 Respondents provided comments, 8 of which were from the Private Sector, 3 from Civil Society / Academia / Non-Governmental Organization / Trade Union, 3 from the United Nations, 1 from the IRG, and 1 from the ERG. Several of the suggestions focused on the need for more details and clarity, including:
Rephrasing the title; 1 suggested using the word “uphold” in place of “advance” so as to clarify the responsibilities of the business (2);
Including social media as a form of marketing and advertising (2); Emphasizing responsible marketing through schools (1); and Emphasizing responsible marketing of breast-milk substitutes (2).
For specific proposals with respect to the text of the Principle itself, please refer to the Source Data Matrix.
3.10 Principle 5
The primary recommendations posed by Respondents with respect to Principle 5 included:
Sub-section (a) should include the special situation of indigenous children as well as add "forest" after "water" at the end;
Sub-section (b) should be re-located to fall under Principle 6; Sub-section (s) is already covered by several other frameworks and
should be removed. Under sub-section (a), consideration should be given to the peculiarities
of children (body structure, organ and immune system development level, metabolic rate, etc.) to ensure awareness; and Reference international environmental quality standards, like those developed by WHO, as well as sector relevant best practices in places where national legislation and standards are clearly failing to protect children.
For specific proposals with respect to the text of the Principle itself, please refer to the Source Data Matrix.
August 2011 Page 13 of 22
Draft Principles – Consultation Results
3.11 Principle 6
The primary recommendations posed by Respondents with respect to Principle 6 included:
Include reference to the fundamental right of proper shelter, nutrition, and access to medical treatment (including vaccinations). The above elements are part of principle 2, 5, and 6;
Include reference to most vulnerable groups such as refugees and migrants, indigenous people, victims of environmental conflicts as well as victims of discrimination and racism;
Consider different impact on boys and girls; Ensuring that the Principle creates realistic obligations for business and
do not extend the role of businesses to that of NGOs;
For specific proposals with respect to the text of the Principle itself, please refer to the Source Data Matrix.
3.12 Principle 7
In relation to Principle 7, there were 14 Respondents, 3 of which were from the private sector, 3 from Civil Society / Academia / Non-Governmental Organization / Trade Union, 1 government body, 3 from the in-country consultations, 3 from the IRG, and 1 from the ERG. Several of the comments focused on the need for more details and clarity:
3 respondents, all from the private sector, thought that Principle 7 was out of the scope of the Children’s Principles and that reporting should be integrated into the GRI and other reporting mechanisms;
2 respondents noted that the principles should further emphasize shared accountability between businesses, governments, and other organizations;
2 respondents suggested integrating with other government initiatives and existing guidelines.
For specific proposals with respect to the text of the Principle itself, please refer to the Source Data Matrix.

Compact; Enable businesses to validate their communications to clients and
suppliers; Support humanitarian work; Help to identify areas of improvement and foster our understanding
that we are on track; Help expand the approach to child focused issues; Provide input to future advocacy campaigns around ethical business
