This Session discusses Pro Bono for ESG(Environment, Society (Human Rights) and Governance (Anti-corruption andcrime) ), which is now promoted as Responsible Business, in particular, for the Vulnerable. The UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights 2011(UNGP) is now promoted even in Japan, but we should prevent so-called HRwash like green wash and empower the vulnerable. Otherwise, they could beeasily excluded from the decent market to end up in the underground businessmore serious exploitation and criminarised. Thus, the victims must be dulyprotected and empowered by the private sector, in particular, lawyers by ProBono. The Human Rights Due Diligence is now also expanding to theEnvironment matter. Not only refugees and forced migrants, but also foreignworkers are vulnerable so that we should discuss possible cooperation amongthe Asian pro bono promoters for the human security and sustainable peace inthe region
