, Other Countries
This practical guide aimed at the oil & gas industry describes how human rights can be integrated into
environmental, social and health impact assessments (ESHIAs), which the
oil and gas industry routinely uses to evaluate projects and activities.
It provides an introduction to human rights and their relevance to the
activities of the oil and gas industry, and briefly describes why it is
important for the oil and gas industry to consider the impact that
its projects and activities have on human rights.
It is the product of collaboration between impact assessment
practitioners from IPIECA members and human rights practitioners from
the Danish Institute for Human Rights (DIHR).
