Paragraph
Paragraph text
The two consultations revealed that multi-stakeholder initiatives, industry coalitions and the auditing community were greatly interested in collaborating with the Special Rapporteur, recognizing the instrumental role that the Special Rapporteur can play in creating a space for open and ongoing dialogue and exchanges on lessons learned and good practices. As no other platform having the same level of credibility and independence as that of the Special Rapporteur exists, representatives of multi-stakeholder initiatives and auditing companies welcomed and encouraged the continuation of the initiatives led by the mandate holder with a view to identifying good practices that can be replicated in other contexts and exploring innovative responses to common challenges.
